OH MY GOD.

(the moment when I saw the car you know what I clicked...)
 
Meh.

It just doesn't grab my attention as much as it probably should.

The GT1-98 however...
 
It has an Eszett in its name, that's pretty cool.
 
I love all the 90s GT1 homologation road cars, and this is no exception.
 
SUBRC

Cool. Not seriously so.
 
Honestly, I think it's kind of badass. It's a racing car for the road, but Porsche being Porsche have given it styling cues which make it look vaguely conventional yet still bonkers, and the interior looks astonishingly liveable.
 
Was this in Forza 2? Or am I misremebering things?
 
I like the idea of this car and I love homologation road cars based on race cars any day. But I don't think the GT1 is cool. Every time I look at it I think it looks like a 911 with a silly body kit (because it kinda is) with poor fitting wheels.

I'll go with meh.
 
Love it but it's totally Uncool.

Very nice interior for a 1990s race car.
 
It looks very pretentious and therefore it's uncool.
 
Ugly homologation special and extremely vulgar.

Uncool.
 
OH NO IT'S A RACE CAR My FAMILY WILL DIE IF THEY SEE THIS RACE CAR
 
I want to love it much more than I actually can. Meh.
 
Ultra-rare Porsche, sub zero. I almost don't need to know what it is. It looks weird, kinda ugly, but that just makes it cooler when we're talking about cars in this realm.
 
It's a race car for the road.

SU.
 
Much like it's equally bonkers GT1 brethren at the time, it's a bonkers race car for the road, from an era of great GT racing. Plus it just looks great, and the rest of the GT1 homologation specials are just brilliant in that regard.

Sub-Zero easy.
