    There are some replicas as a matter of fact only 3% out of 100 are very acruate like the real deal. Like with all avareage cars you gotta halfass somewhere.

    Wouldn't bet on that. Particularly when the "original" had several upgrades over the years. Still one of the fastest cars in the world. And IMHO best looking ones.

    It depends, The prova Countach could rap an orginal Countach and still open a can on an orginal Diablo even the 6.0 and give the GT a run for its money.

    Normally those kits are very lightweight like a lotus super7. Look at the Ultima GTR you build it right and the veyron is in trouble at any track meet.

    I am not sure how serious you are, or if you are just really bad at making analogies.

    A M16/AR15 properly sited is very accurate. Its also rather easy to take down most birds with one shot from a .223/5.56.

    Where do you make this stuff up from? There was no cocurrent ZR1 and countach, unless you are referring to 'that era' as the generation before.

    I was referring to that era.

    Non of its made up that countach replica was indeed faster than the orginal and could probably put a serious beatining a first gen Diablo.

    You give a Prova Countach a current Ultima GTR setup and all hell is gonna break lose~!. But thats if somebody wants to invest 100k in a Countach replica.

    You're right ;) The "designers" made it from a Porsche ... they should kept in original stage.

    He says "you *COULD* sell for 150k". I could sell you an iceberg in Antarctica if you let me to. Or some square acres on the moon.

    Nice body though. Put that on a decent chassis and you got yourself a good start.

    Still why the fu ck would I buy a replica at 150k let alone sell it for a 150k?. Nobody is gonna buy it i can almost garentee it everybody will laugh at the price.

    25k is more reasonable.

    There are a lot of dreamers in the replicaworld. When I was looking for a good project car I had a reasonable price in mind, yet some of these joksters expect silly money for their creations.

    Just look at some of the reserves in ebay's replica section and you see what I mean.

    They should add the testarossa badge so we at least get a clue as to what this is supposed to be.
