The old "cover the Carrera GT with Post-It notes" trick



When the automotive press labels the Carrera GT as one of the most notable or noteworthy Porsches in the automaker's history, we don't think this is what they had in mind. The car's owner, known as VRAlexander, had his supercar covered in post-it notes of various colors. We can think of better ways to change your car's color, but few quite so creative and entertaining. See for yourself in the video after the jump.

It won't sell unless its priced considerably lower than others, everyone knows that its been driven pretty hard and is one of the few that have the yellowing carbon fiber. If you give yourself so much attention you might as well make your identity known to people.

Have nothing to say about the CGT. The black F430 is one of the best I've seen though!
