    Apparently Joe is just a poor schmuck like me (just kidding Joe) and his Ferrari's are all replica's. Here is where he gets them from. j/k ;-)

    I have to say I find the above video hard to believe especially at 38g. If it is true it is one heck of a California replica.

    Too funny, at least the music on the video is good.

    I wonder what supercar they can make starting with a Miata?

    The Miata is ALREADY a super car!








    Disclaimer: The opinion stated above was in no way influenced by my desire to win something at this weekend's Joe Zaff Frosty Balls Rally*. I just really love the car.











    *OK, maybe a little :D

    That is not a replica...it is a real California. The tooling, R&D and parts required to make a replica of that quality would rival the cost of the real thing. The interior, for example, uses the factory stereo/nav, LED display, binnacle, etc... The headlights are factory as well..., brakes are actual carbon....and on and on.

    I have no idea if the company is a fraud or not...but that California is definitely the real thing...so you have to wonder what there angle is in trying to push it off as a replica.

    Oh, and if you think that you can make a BMW engine sound like a Ferrari simply by putting a tubing fan in the exhaust.... well, you are beyond help ;)

    I like that they also offer Yacht kits. How exactly does that work?

    If it is a replica can you say: Trade Mark Infringement?? (Hint, Hint, JoeZ)

    They're probably Ferrari flood cars with a kit car title. :)

    LOL.

    I have to agree though, it would cost me as much as they want for the entire kit just to do the interior in my Callaway. Something is definitely fishy.

    I suspect there are going to be a lot of flood cars on the market in the NE after Sandy. Some of the pics I saw on the news were saddening. I actually saw a house on top of a 911 cab on Long Island. They also showed a vintage SL floating in flood water on the news today.

    There was a thread on this company a while back.
    They show real Ferraris in the vidoes and on Ebay too where they were trying to sell them.
    If I remember correctly, the thread talked about how they were just a scam taking deposits and getting nothing in return.
    Joe said it best too.

    this is hilarious yet completely aggravating because people like this invest time and resources attempting to bullsh*t people instead of being productive members of society....out as much effort into really making a difference and he'd be wildly successful. by the looks of that tool with the sunglasses on and thumbs up, I wouldn't let him build my lawnmower.

    I have known about this company for years. They turned my Veyron into a Cayman R :) Before that - my 599 GTO into a Boxster Spyder - and my McLaren F1 into a Cayman S. They really do great work!!

    I am guessing Chip Foose is not real thrilled with this video either.
