was for badging it up as a ferrari though, so all they do is offer the badges as merchandise now and its up to the owner if the two combine

All the MR2 ones are bad examples. The lights look totally wrong, if you see one up close its not difficult to tell its a copy, its not the right size for a start!!! If you want to do a proper job it should be based on a Pontiac Fiero.
The yellow 355 in The Rock is a Potiac Fiero kit when it gets crushed.

Yeah JB Auto's, when i went down a little while ago to enquire they said they are not permitted to make them anymore cos of the copyright with Ferrari; they now do the Mrk1 with a custom Kamelean kit.

There's a kitted up one forsale in Whales; got the full kit, loads of engine mods and they only want £4K for it, i rang up about it at the weekend but my mother wouldn't insure me on it cos it was a tubo and that i would kill myself in it
