No way I would ever sit in that.. If it was a gift... I would refuse, sorry dear thats just tooo much, can't accept it!
Although that replica is a POS at least that owner/builder went to a bit effort of getting a transparent plastic window over the engine. Other F40 kit car builders just dont bother and end up with a hideously ugly weird breadvan hybrid looking thing...... ie http://carpoint.com.au/used-car/FERRARI/F40/Queensland/csn7075014.aspx Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
We should move this thread, here I am, thinking a CIA agent was driving a F40 and impounded it. How are they asking that much money for it. My 01' Protege isn't even worth 3k anymore and it has <40k miles on it.
For what it is, it is very well done. Kind of a bargin too, for 10% of the price, it brings maybe 15% of the respect of the real thing.
Actually, funny thing (I think), that's not an F-40 clone (even though it has Ferrari badges - silly), but a Zender Fact 4 clone! I had to look at it long and hard before it clicked, and for a moment I thought it could be real, and maybe I should buy it, bring it to the U.S. and covert it back to a proper Zender...but alas, it's a kit based on the Zender, and the proportions are off (nose/rear too long). But the sides/front of the car are a Zender Fact 4 design. Boy - I'm showing my rare/on-off car dorkiness Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
I was going to say the same thing and show off my dorkiness too. That thing is a dead ringer for the Fact-4. >8^) ER
Taking it one step further, one could also argue that the Zender is in fact a bad kitcar. The Fact 4 was one of a series of IMO overkitted one-offs (Audi engine, etc.) to promote Zender's body cladding business, which, when you boil it down, is essentially a kitcar business... ...so the one above is a kitcar based on another kitcar with the wrong branding altogether. That's rich. -Tad
I would recommend that you don't buy that Alfa Romeo ... seriously. I've been restoring one for 20 years and it had less rust than that one! Best Pete
