Jake Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Did you see that article on PH about some guys in Italy getting nicked for selling MR2 based Ferrari replicas? Apparently, over there, it's actually illegal to sell them, even if the buyer knows it's not a real Ferrari! Apparently those buying the cars knew they were fakes (how wouldn’t they?) so we can only hope that people rolling in rebodied MR2s over here will soon get busted for being so lame. It seems that in Italy just selling a Ferrari replica is actually against the law, whereas over here it is just a crime against style. http://www.pistonheads.com/news/default.asp?storyId=17682 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michael Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 I wonder how long it'll be until the red mafia try it on over here? They have been doing it for years already - lots of the companies supplying these kits close down and appear under new names to try and avoid it. There is a chap who has been working on an MR2 F40 for years, I first saw it in 2000 when it looked like this: http://www.megaboost.co.uk/old/pics/mr2/mk2/ferrari/f40mr2.jpg Since then he's squared it off a bit but I haven't seen any decent photos of the whole car in years... http://www.megaboost.co.uk/old/pics/mr2/mk2/ferrari/f40-mr2-00.JPG http://www.megaboost.co.uk/old/pics/mr2/mk2/ferrari/f40-mr2-01.JPG http://www.megaboost.co.uk/old/pics/mr2/mk2/ferrari/f40-mr2-02.JPG They are around 5 years old - no idea if it's still around now. The 328 kits are almost acceptable: http://www.megaboost.co.uk/old/pics/mr2/mk2/ferrari/mr2-328-01.jpg Or you could forget the Ferrari thing and go mad... http://www.megaboost.co.uk/old/pics/mr2/mk2/russian-mr2-04.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoff Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 My mate has just bought a red MR2 with the Ferrari body kit on it. Fully sprayed the correct red too. Ive only driven past it but it looks like a top quality kit to be fair. Its far better than this one. And its fooled a lot of people also. Having said that I wouldn't want one.
