I bet the guy who owns it is kaking himself

BWAAAHAAAHAAHAAAAHAAHAHAHAHAHA.

 

??????????????????????

Where did I ,or anyone else mention VW's.

 

The "Ferrari Daytona $2mil" bit could only have come from the owner of that POS. How embarrassing, the organizers should hang their heads in shame.

Are porkers not a marque ?

 

Well I don't think we can start berating show organizers when the FCA itself accepts replicas, although I agree there needs to be some sort of category for 'specials' that have Ferrari engines. No F- engine and it ain't a Ferrari...

 

Agree totally, fakes turning up to Ferrari concourse is a joke no matter how "good" they are

 

There was an area for Odd balls and modified cars....OPS.... sorry Special Interest Vehicles.
and the Kelmark re Dino looking car moved there and so should have the RH Daytona

the FCA does NOT accept replicas, the "F40" in QLD is a rebodied 308 and is regarded as so.

No replica is allowed entry into a national concorso field and they are (or should be) discouraged at state level.

There will never be a category for "specials" in the FCA, we operate under an agreement with Ferrari and any replica is an illegal theft of design copyright, regardless of its engine.

Auto Italia allows any car that appears to be Italian to drive up, the volunteer parking marshals have minimal marque knowledge and are easily deceived. Their system relies on the honesty of owners, it needs improving.

 

here is a perfect example of what the media is - mass entertainment, where every report is manipulated to extract sensation or reflect the audience's preconception, with no regard at all for the truth.

Yet millions of people happily base their opinion of US politics, AGW, radical islam, etc on what they learn from the mainstream media.

 

I see the LPM section had room for Morettis .... were there any ?

Again, like the 500s, they are not pretty.

Did the fake 250LM make an appearance ?

 

No and No
the Fake 250LM are you referring to the CR car

Yes, what engine is it running ?

 

Must really feel like you're at Le Mans driving that thing

 

particularly with the mighty Ford V6 from a Zephyr behind you

The owner is a nice man who has a 400A and until recently a 365BB. He cooperates with our requests not to bring the replica onto the concorso field.

 

There was a video some years back where I think the Ferrari or Lamboghini test driver was tootling around the back roads near Maranello and there was a real 250LM sitting on the side of the road ...... very surreal seeing it on a country road

 

Link or it didn't happen

 

Fair enough with all of that except the "f40" is not displayed with any info or the engine cover open and outsiders most certainly DO think it's what it pretends to be.

 

Well John,since the poster was talking about Ferrari,I'd have been fairly confident most here would have thought my post regarded the marque being discussed.
