The strange thing is, if you can ignore laughing at it, it almost (I did say almost ) looks right. Not a Ferrari, but the same car, with the same body kit and no Ferrari badges wouldn't actually look so stupid IMO.

I may need to go to specsavers but to me it looks like a Fiat Coupe.....

[james_tigerwoods]

I can't believe the seller is selling this seriously - it's not a Ferrari, it's a Fiat Coupe with a bunch of crap tacked on to it.

What on earth is with that front grill? And who is "PINA FARINA"?

I, in all honesty, kindof like it But only if you remove the Fxxx badges, the other Ferrari badges, that front grill and any reference to Maranello.

But 10k? C'mon....

EFA: No wait! It's in the 575 section

F505 - The forgotten Ferrari

Picture 5...
The tiny little vent poking his head about the rear wing with an "OH! Hi!"

I especially like the way the F505 badge is made from those generic font Halfords badges.

What, you mean opposed to genuine Ferrari F505 badges?

I think she was a showgirl at the Copa, Copa Cabana...

Seriously though, who are they kidding? And yet again, I ask, what happens when someone asks you what car you drive? Are you honestly supposed to say 'Ferrari'?

And why do builders of 'RELPICCAS' always go overboard with the badges? There are three or four within the driver's binnacle alone. It's like they're saying 'it IS a Ferrari, it IS HONEST! Look at all the badges! Must be!'

I am usually quite restrained when it comes to 'this type of thing' - each to their own and all of that, and I doubt that there are many on here who have not committed some form of motoring 'school boy error' at some point. I have - although the red carpet I put in the front footwells of my Fiat Panda did actually make it go like a Pug 205 GTi!

Having said that, what the fk is going on here? I am not sure what is worse, administering a fate worse than scrapping onto a perfectly nice future classic, or actually trying to pass it off as some form of Ferrari sports concept?

How Much????

Possibly the worst case of 'this type of thing' that I have ever witnessed. In the interests of preserving future decency, the owner of this abomination should be legally prevented from owning any other car, ever again. The bit that sent a chill down my spine was the fact that this poor fiat is being sold to make space for other coupe projects!!!!

You can not unsee what you have seen.

Strange,...Its not like the standard car is ugly, so why the need to spend all of that money making something nice into crap?
I once did an install on an MR2 rep, on my driveway about 10 tears ago, and plenty of neighbours thought that it was the real thing.
The spacers on the rear were at least 500mm!

No they didn't, your neighbours were just being nice because your mum and dad had told them that you were 'special'

[Garlick]

Hey, what's the retail on one of those?
