Seen that before, there is just something that looks wrong. Still can't work out what it is. Guys got some skills though and big balls to rip apart a car like an NSX :twisted: . Although I'd have the NSX on my drive 8)

That's amazing - but is it supposed to be an Enzo, or an F40? :D

Surely there's a less valuable car than an NSX (classic in it's own right!) to go chop-shopping for such a look? :(

F50? Doh :)
Sorry, i'm a bit stuck in the 80s so far as Ferraris are concerned. I'm dimly aware of the 360 and the F50, but my heart lies with the 355 and F40 ;) And the testarossa of course

all the fibreglass that went into that construction, it's probably lighter than the real thing!

built using an accurate scale model! :lol:

Thats mad! Though why you would want to take a perfectly decent Acura NSX and turn it into a copy of a Ferrari is beyond me. Guess some people have too much money.
