Another abortion

I agree, what an insult.

 

I looks about the same as your car ed... what is the problem with this?

 

Hey, its even got a replica Ferrari engine. That alone raises its value about $50

 

Classiche time! Let's see how good they are.

 

GM messed up and put that same ferrari engine in my fiero!

 

LOL!

 

I love where it says "The car gets all the looks all the time", there is a reason for that and it is not what he thinks!

 

He is being honest, though.

 

Yeah, but he could sell it in Nebraska or Iowa and few would even notice..

 

i bet the a/c blows cold. ;-(

 

Never needs a major !
$10 distributor cap and rotor too.

 

Tru dat

 

It could always be worst .

 

I dunno... I think it looks pretty good, and you dont see alot of 328 replica's.
The problem with projects like this, if done well, it costs way more to build than it'll ever be worth.
As I said, I think it looks good... but not $19K good! If it had an LT1 or LS1 conversion & 5-speed... maybe $15K.

I'd love to get my hands on a minty Mera... those were pretty cool, altho i'm sure most of you would disagree, angrily!

 

To each his own. And as you imply, the gap between replica and real closes pretty quickly with projects like these. But beauty is in the mind of the beholder, and as a buddy of mine always says, "there's an a$$ for every seat"

 

Here's hoping you didnt mean that, like it sounded... lol

 

looks a hell of a lot better than a 'real' 328 or whatever they are called thats for sure eh?

 

thats one point off for under belt punch...........

 

looks better than most real ferrari's on ebay for sale.

Bet it drives better too.

 

I was speaking anatomically rather than intellectually... lol.

 

As a Ferrari owner I too don't like kit cars, but the Mera was actually a pretty decent "fake" Ferrari. It's a double edged sword, the car as a car is decent, but the car as a Ferrari is an abomination. Can anyone give me a history lesson regarding the Mera? Wasn't this thing available through Pontiac dealers - like almost an official option? Yes it's still Fiero based, but it's done to a much higher standard than the typical backyard type kit cars. I've never seen one in person to really check it out, how was the fit and finish? I also agree that a Mera with an LT1 or hotter motor would be a blast to drive.
