No way that's a direct 1 to 1 replica. Roofline still looks wrong. For 50k I would be putting my money in a F355.

That's a work of art. If I we're able to do a quality job like that (not saying it's a 1-1) in would be looking at developing high end kits rather than building a replica.

Hate to admit it but wheel spacing/arches apart that's a bloody good effort.

Just make sure you dont drive it to Italy....

Pretty impressive!

Are those real carbon ceramic brakes?

[StuLawton]

Full marks for effort, but you'd buy a write-off for that money somewhere, no?

Is this the same car, sold recently on eBay to an offer of less than £33k?

It doesn't look too bad, until you see a full side-on profile...

You are "honestly" not impressed at the level of workmanship to do this job ?

I truly understand why many people hate replicas, I wouldn't drive one but not everyone can afford a real one and some people just like the challenge of building their own.

I might be impressed if every panel was hand beaten into shape and built onto a custom chassis and body. But fitting fibre glass panels to a donor car isn't impressive in my book and any half decent bodyshop could make a stab at it.
