Understeer: You will hit the wall with the front end.
Oversteer: You will hit the wall with the rear end.
Horsepower: How hard you will hit the wall.

996 outpost decal above that trailer hitch cover will generate great publicity for the site! Especially in CA.

Speaking of questionable taste: here's a Mercedes sedan with Longhorn rack mounted on the hood. It had dual exhaust "stacks" (!) bolted to the rear bumper and the requisite plastic nutsack hanging below.

Sorry for the terrible photo...snapped @ light w/ hatchfull of dog.

It's definitely unique. Cool, OTOH, not so sure.

Then again, I run MKII aero on my '99, so I must be a fan of tacky/overdone... :D
