tooquicktostop Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 I have seen this companies work, they were at Top Gear MPH, it is a very good kit and a great looking car, until you start it up. I just could not do with a copy like this, its just not the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benkei Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 It's a Peugot... So at least it has similar reliability to a super car! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willson Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 "It as a full replica engine bay, using genuine Ferrari parts, (this alone cost a small fortune) and convinces everyone"? As in non functioning? Peugeots are front engined right? No pics of this fantastic engine bay though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 I've seen a few of these and they're a very good replica if you like that kind of thing. Proper proportioned etc. Two big problems for me. 1) Huuuge spacers 2) No engine looking through the rear window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Havard Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 I wonder ho much someone would pay for this?? This actually looks quite good compared to some. There was a yellow 355 replica in Wigan the other day, looked just like an MR2 with a fancy body kit. If there were replicas that eally did make think it was a Ferrari then I think I would splash the cash and get one. After driving the 360 a couple of times I would hope that the replica was a bit more fun...... H. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
