It screams gold chains and retired old guy in Florida.
Way too much look at me mods.

It's over the edge alright. If you knew it was a 914LE would you view it differently?

Nope. Not my style at all. But Florida, gold chains, unbuttoned shirt, fits perfectly.

This car was on here before. I think someone was saying it was a being used to demo multiple accessories? Only other explanation is insanity.

Cali (only because I know Calfornians hate it) has guys with gold chains and pants down to their knees. Bazinga

Assuming there is a Porsche Crest on the driver's side door speaker grill (like seen on the passenger side) I count the name "Porsche" on the car at least 30 times. I don't know but that seems a little excessive.

Just a tad. Fortunately for us its for sale from the west coast.

Some spendy parts on that tub but the car looks to be pretty clean under all that. Someone should buy it, de-bling it and I bet they make money. It would likely be more valuable in Bumblebee trim when its all said and done.

All that extra crap and they go with 4 bolt Fuchs knockoffs?
Edit: Jeff, thanks for the correction that they are indeed real fuchs. I saw the black paint and assumed American Eagle rims without looking at them closer (flush bolts vs the eagle's recessed.)

The wheels, unlike all the chest hair, are real.

Is there a description of the car somewhere? I looked on the site but could only find photos.

Looks like a 914world member build...check out badge on glove box.
To each his own....

The steering wheel is just TOO much.

It was for sale in 2016 in either Ohio or Michigan. I spoke with the owner and as Jeff stated it is a LE. Back then I believe he wanted $12k for it. I was short on funds then otherwise I would have try to make a deal on it and do like Jeff said de-bling it and get it back to the correct LE look.

The poor car must be hating itself;I feel so said for it; my eyes hurt.

Is it really an LE? If so and the car is good in its elements one could Un-Bling it and give it back its Bum-Oo-Bee goodness.

It is a real LE.
I wonder what the street value is of that stuff if removed, vs the cost to replace? Things like the seats, steering wheel, and Fuchs for Mahles?
Once an LE always an LE.

I’m thinking about saving it but my wife loves original and just HATES this car.

The seats are worth more than what it would cost for used ones recovered.
The Eng. Has the nitrous and wonder if the case in the same?
What is a correct LE Bee worth?

I live near this dealership and purchased my CTTS from them and I might pay a visit with my own LE.
The ad in the link now has a little Barrett Jackson Scottsdale tag on the first photo so I assume it will be going there in January. I got an email recently that they'll have 80 cars there. It will be fun to watch.

Lol we live less than five minutes from PP, but don’t have the muster to stop in.
