    I wonder when it was painted red? All the previous photos I've seen of that Sbarro design were gray

    That's definitely a Testarossa engine.
    Are you telling me that this bastard car started life as a Testarossa?

    Who ever did that should get prosecuted.

    i'm pretty sure that 75278, the Alcador Sbarro, started life as it looks in these pictures... i don't know anything about it, however, maybe our resident Testarossa expert, Edvar, can tell us more about it...

    ...and unless more than one Alcador was made and they were made with different styling, the one on eBay looks fishy... It's got a different rear than 75278 and has no Ferrari badges... Pictured below, 75278; picture courtesy Projekt - M2 Business Technologies.

    I don't know that I can go so far as to say "I like it"...

    ...but I can say "I want it" - paint it blue (with a LOT of metalflake) to go with my other stuff and I have one bad-ass, flat-12 dune buggy.

    Cheers

    LMAO, you're right...! i don't know what i was thinking, sorry... Maybe the difference in colors threw me off, i'm not sure... You're right, though, the rears are the same...


    Wolfgang...! How's it going, buddy...? You're right, it looks like it was sent to the Middle East with a data plate like that... Even better, though, is the serial number in that picture - 78553...! Gerald has that car listed as a Ferrari Testarossa Sbarro Spider... :)

    Maybe because the 2 small lights are hard to see on the red car. I liked the car better in silver. :)

    But someone please put a windshield on the car! lol

    I like it! That certainly was NOT done with a lot of shopping at Home Depot!

    maybe its some parts from a wrecked TR? In that case, I'm glad to see such fine parts being "recycled" into something.

    Hi Patpong,

    I hope that you are OK!

    They even used the original odometer from the TR. I think that $180.000 is a high asking price for a kitcar Testarossa. Is it an official Ferrari in this form? Why does the grey one have Ferrari badges and the red one not?
