Interesting eBay Ferrari

Post by KarlBristol »

I will let you make up your own minds :mrgreen:

I think this is possibly the most realistic replica I've seen - those rear lights look identical! :-k

Haha, I don`t normally comment on these fake Ferrrari threads but that truly is a poor effort.

Hmm, this reminds me of "the best pictures are on radio not TV". All it takes is imagination ... :idea:

I've seen this kit before and it was one of the really early ones. It was not sold as a replica kit but a Ferrari style bumper kit. The trailer lights are custom and ruin the car compleatly.

mmm ... i quite like the front bumper if they got the bonnet to fit flush with the nosecone .The interior is nicely done esp the colour coding of the dash to match the seats.
Loose all the silly ferrari badges and do something with that awful rear end and it would be a nice car.

As said, aside from the rear lights, it's a nice kit.

It's obviously never ment to be a Ferrari 'kit', more a Ferrari 'look'.

Pop a stock spoiler and rear lights on, remove the badges and it wouldn't be half bad.
Though I'm not a fan of Lexus alloys, putting a badge on these is shameful!

The rear light set up looks pretty much the same as the "Le mans" kit

The only thing that has in common with a Ferarri is the F40 style bonnet panel gap :shock:

Very sad effort IMO.

I saw a girl driving a MR2 355 the other day. You just know it's not a 355 straight away - not sure why you'd want one.

Sells a sports car with the only reference to driving : 'it starts drives and stops as it should'.

Something obviously went wrong a while ago :lol:
