That grill is absolutely massive but pails in comparison to the LX600.

Great car collection fellas!
The I6 and the V10. The go-cart and the rocket ship. I want to add a F82 M4 at some point and a E90 M3 and that will complete my BMW joy.1 Photo

Porsche guys in my neck of the woods champion the saying: “It’s only original once.” Put simply, originality is highly favored. However, there has been a recent phenomenon in which highly modified cars trade at ultra premiums. I consider this the Singer Effect.
This level build on a first gen GT4 would have likely sold very quickly and for big dollars. The R is really just underappreciated at the moment. My guess is that things will come full circle in the future for one reason: hydraulic steering. The first gen GT4 has the first gen electronic steering and it’s a bummer. Probably best in class, but still not a hydraulic rack.

People put the GT4 nose on the earlier 987 Caymans sorta regularly. Same with the GT3 nose. With a more common Cayman it works. For an R, coveted might be a strong word in this case with so few Rs in existence.
To this layman, it's akin to putting a different nose on a M3 CSL... from another model within BMWs lineup. They are quite rare, already look fantastic, so.... why? Granted, this does work a bit better with Porsches because they all look alike, lol.
But whatever. I'm the guy that repainted my car and made it look like a CSL so "hello pot, I'm kettle."
