browsing MX-5's on ebay I came across this one and noticed the following Citreon C6 in the backgrround.

What's wrong with the Citroen ?

The look.

I love Liberty Walk. They charge a fortune for some plastic tat and crummy decals to ruin very expensive cars and people can't get enough of it. It's genius.

I love that. Paint the arches and its perfect!
I know its probably sacrilegious to some, but by modern standards its not that fast, and if you wanted something to cane its unlikely you would go for an old Ferrari anyway. Its still got the engine, just looks different (better, in my opinion)

Fit some decent suspension and paint the crap looking arches and that would look decent.

Not a prancing horse fan to start off with - that is just.... NO!

This CRX is for sale, for £7995. There’s a clean standard one for sale for £35k, so this actually might be a bargain if you can get it back to standard for less than £27k, or leave it as it is if you are blind

An Ayrton Senna tribute, with the airbrushed Muriels, some Senna S stickers, and embroidered seats. I’m sure the airbrush paint quality is fine, but its a no from me.

I thought it was Alan Partridge on the bonnet until I read it. Be better if it was, and on a Ford Probe or old Lexus.

I've got no idea what the appeal is of having your skirts rubbing on the tarmac, but when that's at driving height I think it looks great. The extra front and rear bits tie in well with the shape of the car. The sheer amount of black plastic is a bit much side-on, but overall I don't mind that at all.

I almost don’t mind that. It’s certainly unique.

I quite like the arches as they are, but I'd want some colour in the wheels somewhere to break up the big black shape. Red calipers would be the obvious thing, although I quite like the idea of something a bit more nuts like gold or neon.

The bolt on look of the wheel arches is a bit naff

God I love bolt-on wheel arch extensions, no idea why but I just do, even those in black look great on a red car.
Can't stand the dropped-to-the-floor thing though, even if it's just when parked - it just looks broken especially as it then gives it a very silly camber but only on the rear wheels.

never mind that, what about this thing?
http://www.speedhunters.com/2021/02/re-amemiya-4-r...

was a Ferrari Testarossa, no longer looks anything like one, no longer has much remaining of the Testarossa
why not just build it as a complete one off? what did the TR bring to the party? why have they essentially destroyed it?

[E63eeeeee...]

Apart from the front three quarter view, where the rear deck looks like it's off a completely different car, that's not awful, but it's a bit meh. Some colour might lift it, possibly. Not sure why you'd make such an iconic car look so average. Interesting that the article compares it to a Speedtail, quite a lot of their cars don't seem to be styled for impact, and this seems a bit like that.

Looks like they tried to make a Noble but couldn't decide which one.
