    "No leaks, no over heating, no smoke." Can't be a Ferrari....

    It's not that bad looking on the outside but that giant Horsey on the dash is just HORRIBLE. This guy must where as many gold chains around his neck as Mr. T.

    It says Brooklyn but it's got "Jersey bait" written all over it!

    1st glance, it looks like a good replica.

    2nd glance even to an untrained eye, something looks soooo wrong, horrendous gaps in the wheel arch, pop up lights and that terrible steering wheel. That really takes the cake in terms of being tasteless.

    Yes, the side view is simply awful. And, I don't think it has a top either from what I can see. What a waste of money someone sunk into this.

    The red stain is police evidence.

    Looks like a life size plastic Barbie Ferrari toy. Vomit.

    The guy who started the thread owns a Ferrari 348 - and Ferrari owners have a sense of humour. ;)

    All the best,
    Andrew.

    I'm amazed at the extent some people go to try to replicate a Ferrari. I can imagine how much time and effort this person put into trying to make this replica as close as possible. Going as far as cutting the frame and extending it to the same length as the 355. I'm got to hand it to him.

    Definitely does not look right. Aside from the strange looking gaps in the wheel wells, if you look at the second last picture you will notice that the passenger side headlight does not sit properly, looks very sloppy. I say torch it....

    I have to say that it must have been a lot of effort to build the replica.

    over 25k invested to produce this amazing super car...

    I'm guessing a majority of that $25K investment was to purchase all the "Ferrari" badges and name plates stuck on the car's interior and exterior! :)

    What a piece of junk - wheelbase of body doesn't match wheelbase of the chassis. Really, really bad...

    ...but still less of the latter :rolleyes:

    Having to choose, I would rather have the Pontiac Fiero than that thing.

    Why is it that the replicas have so darn many Ferrari logos. I counted 22 on that thing.....and my real Ferrari has 9 (I think). I guess they figure the more logos, the more people will think it's real.
