I had a new 147 GTA back in the day. Lovely styling and character. Just not so great in other ways. Your RB26 147 is going to be AWESOME!! evil

it's crazy, and it'll be a laugh

but it surely will be a worse car over all than the original GTR

couldn't they find a crashed one or something?

That is stunning, the design of the finished bodywork is excellent! Still looks like a 2CV, but has hints of Ferrari at the same time
