#5, my guess is a U.S. 2-valve injected(possibly carbed) with a Vitaloni California mirror, just like on Niki Lauda's 312. Maybe he should put them on the R3, it couldn't hurt. | ||

The 355 looks like if a rock hit it the whole thing would shatter | ||

Car 5 is definatly real ... others stand out like a sore thumb. but the 355 replica would be harder to tell of they put some embliems on it. (If some on stared at their real 355 as much as I do the difference would be easy to tell. The Diablo on the other hand is really a good looking replica ,its amazing how good some of them look. | ||

That was fun! We must all do this every once and awhile..... Believe me, I've seen kits that would fool the onwer of the real thing.. Ferraris are not always that exact, but some Diablo kits really have me thinking.... | ||

I know somebody that owns a real Diablo in black on black with chrome wheels and they look awesome. Just for the shine on those rims he wins all concourses...and I must say I do not like chronme rims either, too "Ghetto" | ||

Car #5. The rest just look a bit off from the originals, not to mention some don't even have the badge. | ||

What kills the Diablo is the wheels. I would hope no Diablo owner would change his stock wheels for these disgusting chrome things. Ernesto | ||

Well, most of you guessed the right one! I had alot of fun reading some of your reasons! #1 is in fact a kit car although it is one of the best I've seen. #2 is also a kit, as is #3 and #4. So the real exotic car is the #5 308 GTS, I thought that the mirror would throw some of you off!. Some of you should have known better!  Maybe we'll do this again. Next time I won't make it so easy! | ||

I'll go with #5. 2, 3 and 4 are no brainers and something looks wrong with #1. | ||

Mitchell, I believe all GTS have full window louvers, and only the GTB have half louvers. With that said, I'll vote for #5 being the original... | ||

Bzzzt. :-) On the GTS, the louvers do cover the whole back window. GTBs have the half louvers. I still vote 5 | ||

Look at the rear window slots on the #5 car. A dead giveaway of a kit. They cover the whole window, should only cover 1/2 of the window. Tisk Tist, you should know better. ;) Of course, it may be real, but it is not stock. | ||

I vote for #5. Number one looks like the Lambo kit car made by Lear2000. The others are pretty bad kits. | ||

I assure you #1 is not real. I am 100% sure. Dispite what anyone says. ;) | ||
| Ernesto (T88power)
Member Username: T88power Post Number: 478 Registered: 2-2001 |
2,3,4 are definitely not real. I have yet to see an open top Diablo kit car, but I am sure they must be out there. So #1 I am not sure of, these kits are getting better all the time... Number 5 looks real enough to me, but there is a kit car company that used make good copies of 308's. So, its one or five... I will vote for five, since those crome wheels on the Diablo are disgusting, and the guy probably couldnt afford Lambo wheels... If it is real, the owner has horrible taste... Ernesto | ||

#5 looks pretty real but non standard #2 doesn't even nearly look right #1 wont load on my computer or at least not in the time I have in this lifetime. #3 rear side windows look totally wrong #4 doesn't look like a Lambo, the angles look wrong and the windows and sills and bumpers etc etc. | ||

#5 is a fake, look at the rear window. #4 is a fake, the glass is wrong #3 is fake, the rake of the windshild is wrong #2 is fake, the lights are wrong #1 is fake, I know the company that made that car. ;) Oh and it lacks the mounting equipment and the front spoiler is off | ||

#5, even though that side mirror is odd. #s 3 and 4 are just sad, #2 isn't too bad from 200 feet but I didn't think any of the droptops had covered lights (I could be wrong though) and the stance is wrong. #1 is very good, and may even be the real thing, but the rear wheel spacing looks odd to me. Just my $.01 | ||

1 or 5 is real; I think the front bumper is wrong on the "308" as is the side mirror; but the back lid seam is correct which usually isn't on a kit car. Tough choice - I say #1 is real. | ||
