    yet, 18 bids so far. 14k$ for this, I can think of other way more interesting (I should say not embarrassing) cars for that price...

    They are being a little fast and loose with the word "replica."

    I just don't get it. The owner says they spent $35k and a I believe a stock Fiero looks better.

    Some one bought a Lamborghini replica and brought it to an independent shop near me last year. From 20 ft it might pass. They had spent money to buy what looked like original headlights, emblems, and rims and tires. Close up the doors had been split down the middle and a fiberglass piece was put in which held the door together. In an accident that car would fold like an accordion and someone would most likely be killed. It is amazing what people will do to look cool. Not worth losing your life over.

    "not ONE imperfection or flaw to this Ferrari Testarossa Kit Car"

    Apart from the rather apparent flaw; it looks absolutely nothing like a Testarossa...

    I would not admit to spending $35K to build this publicly.

    Wow, $35K would have bought him a solid Mondial and enough cash for a stock Fiero.

    And also what I don't get is, THIS IS A DEALER selling this! I can kind of understand a private sale, but seriously? Some Dealer saw this abomination and thought "I can turn a profit on this!"

    I counted the word "Ferrari" or the horse logo 23 times. That alone adds $230 value to the car.

    Only way you could pull a trophy with that thing is if said trophy was sitting on a trailer hitched to the back of the car.

    I can't stop laughing. Seriously, it just makes me giggle thinking about someone putting so much time into this "replica".

    Oh man click through to the photo album he lists. Some observations:

    1. Holy crap, look at all the Cavallinos in that interior!
    2. Look at how bad the panels fit together
    3. I've seen the "Ferrari" badge on the intake manifold before. Do people REALLY think that's legit?
    4. Looks like he took it to a Fiero car club show or something. There was even a Fiero/Boxer there: http://photos.imageevent.com/sniperalezgunworks/ferrari/websize/IMG_0899.JPG
    5. What kind of women fall for this?
