Not sure if people have seen this, you prob have, but for those who haven't. Have a look, there's quite a lot of pictures so 56k be warned.

It's not something I'd do to my car, but the worksmanship is remarkable.

Damn, some effort went into that. Bored middle aged people with lots of time and money can accomplish so much.

What a waste of time.
After all that effort you still don't actually have a Ferrari.

A1 for effort and determination.
A1 for quality of workmanship.
But i don't get why someone with a love and passion for cars
would want a 'rip-off' Ferrari.
Cheers

He makes reference to 'kit cars' so it's probably one of those "let's see what we can design and build a kit for" At least the base is an MR2 and not a VW Beetle.

Apart from shedding a whole stack of weight and adding an exhaust I doubt it.

That's some dedication. Looks good, but...

I can't help but think every time I looked at it, you know it's not one.
