Why would you laugh at it? It looks neat enough.
The only problem i see is a possible copyright breach with all the ferrari pieces adorning it. Pardon my ignorance, but is/was it a Nissan originally? |

So sad really. The guy that owns this has probably had plastic surgery to look like Aneglina Jolie as well.

The Tiburon is a damn good car!
I love Clarksons comment on Top Gear when this model was released that some motoring journalists at the time had no complaint with the handling or the car itself, but were complaining about the styling, saying it was "too much like a Ferrari". Clarksons immortal come-back was "I'm sorry...you're complaining because your cheap Hyundai coupe looks too much like a Ferrari?? That's like complaining because your wife looks too much like Uma Thurmon..."

What model Ferrari is it meant to be replicating??? If anything, you'd have more luck trying to pass it off as an MP4-12C

You have to admit, he has done a good job for a clone.
For $22k it is not a bad custom, but it is still a clone try hard. I am sure some cashed up P plater will buy it.

sorry to be the hater, but imo it doesnt look anything like a Ferrari? It looks like a Hyundai tiburon with a lot of Ferrari badges slapped on. Also dont think their big brakes either, just the clip on fake brembos painted yellow?

If this fools real Ferrari enthusiasts then they mustn't be much of an enthusiast in the first place. It looks nothing like a Ferrari in any way shape or form. How embarrassed would you be driving in a fake Ferrai ripoff. People would just laugh at you everywhere you go, especially when its a Hyundai.

I don't really see what's been done other than ebay brake covers, a stereo with a ferrari logo, some tips and heaps of ferrari badges.
He'd be better off losing the badges and sell it as a nice tiburon. It looks nothing like a ferrari, should have atleast got some quad circle tail lights.

Yeh it is such an evil fake.
Like XT GY utes or any GT replica or any XR86T with FPV bits or AUs with T series bits or GT40 kits or Cobra kits or V8 Cortinas etc. etc. etc. ad nauseum There are so many narrow minds on this forum..... |
