Very pretty car -IMHO

Just spotted this on TKC this week. One of the prettiest cars I have seen for a very long time. As I don't think Ferrari ever made one of these therefore it is not a replica (don't put dino/ferrari badges on it!) and so you may be able to take it to Italy/Spain and not get it impounded :-)

I'll now stand back and light the fuse on another debate over replica kit cars. Sorry.

Ohhh, now that I like! As you say, don't pretend its a real Ferrari, just take it for what it is, a Ferrari inspired car, and enjoy it!

Comment from SWMBO, "looks like the girl version of your old Sammio Spyder" and tbh I can see exactly where she's coming from! And not necessarily in a bad way!

Agree, just use it as a very good looking kit car that has a passing resemblance to a dino 246 with the top chopped off. Don't think I would even bother with the Camry v6 transplant - 240hp from the turbo version would be plenty, and it comes free with the donor.

Very pretty indeed, though this is based on the Mk3 MR2 / MRS Roadster, still far, far better than any of the 360 or 430 body kits.

WHAT! That is hideous! Like a REALLY dodgy Dino 246 with an awful roof chop and tacky, cheap wheels....sorry guys but I really cant agree...that is not a good looking car.

Nothing new - there was a full convertible available years ago with 2.9 V6 ford base - Deon Malibu(?)
