Re: If you happen to buy a black Ferrari from a Chinese dealer...
I vaugely remember something like that before...not a bad job at all. Though it doesn't look 100% right, you'd still turn heads. Plus it's gotta be about 97% cheaper...
One thing I noticed though, does the van in the back of this picture have a mural of two kids kissing on it?
Dace?

They took a Honda NSX car, stripped they body panels off it, made up a new body that matches a Ferrari F50 and put it on.
So basically it's an NSX underneath and the body of a Ferrari on top. So it's a fake ferrari.

Re: If you happen to buy a black Ferrari from a Chinese dealer...
It's been posted before, but quite a while ago so I'd lost the link.
In conclusion,
Old, but good thread!
Wonder if I can do that with my Accord...

There was a car dealer up here that had a "Ferrari" on display for £10k. Looked quite good actually. I just hope the guy who bought it wasn't expecting the real thing

Re: If you happen to buy a black Ferrari from a Chinese dealer...
I imagine one must only sit in it to realize it's not a Ferrari (or simply see the interior). A Farrari is just loaded with luxury quality furnishings that you can't fake. I'm sure that if you were standing next to it with the engine running you'd know too.
