    Anything from Factory Five is really good.

    I don't mind Lamborghini replica's as long as they are done properly on either a stretched Fiero or a Tube chassis like this one

    http://www.kitcar.com/KitCarsForSale/lambo-scaramuzzino-tx.jpg

    Its clean and done the right way and yeah its a kit but you know what id drive it!.

    I personally think the non stretched kits are retarded. They are ugly, they cost more to build than stretching the chassis

    No they aren't D^uchbags those are penny pinchers :D they always trying to save money on every little thing. They'll reuse toilet paper if nessary :D

    Thats a FINO kit. Its orginal design and indeed it was a PISA kit to.

    Its OK I guess Id drive it if it was for free. I ain't paying 45k to build one.

    Here's a nice Countach replica

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/189-1-2-Lamborghini-Countach-Anniversary-Replica_W0QQitemZ130096668754QQcategoryZ7251QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

    Its probably more reliable than the orginal and with a few mods to the engine it will be faster.

    The company who made the body of this also created a Grand National powered one and it looked just like this one and it was much quicker than the orginal hell ill go as far to say it will lay a serious beating on an LP-640.

    Yes it was Fiero based to!.

    Na.... there was one in this thread back in the begining that looked like Goofy himself. The most terrible looking replica ever. Probably within the first 20 pages somewhere, lol!

    Found this for sale on another site. The ad reads:

    1958 Ferr@ri Test@rossa Convertable Red
    This car was bought last year, and was only driven 5 times last summer Odometer reads 795, which is probably what I've put on it. It's built on a MG chassis. Was built in 1994. Is insured, and registered in NY as a 1958 apst? Beautiful condition, like new.

    I know which one your talking about. That one is atleast decent compared with this dispite they are both disgusting.

    Like I said before if your gonna do a replica do it right!. Its retarded to even waste so much money to build a complete sh!tbox. If it surpasses the orginal or could potentually surpass the orginal in terms of pricing don't build it. You might as well buy the real thing. Both are gonna give you a headace so its pointless to argue about it you know.
