Looks closer to a ferrari than the kits you get from ebay and stick onto a fiero. Wonder if the exhaust sounds anywhere close to a real ferrari though

^^ I probably would have done that myself but it would be fun to see what else they could make.

The NSX was much nicer. They definitly have the skills they just need a designer.

I agree.
I can only imagine how much time and money it took to do this conversion. Looks like some very talented work, but I don't think I would ever have nay desire to do that to an NSX if I owned one.

It was supposedly done for 15,000#'s...I do doubt that though.
However..this leads to another topic. Why do these people make such cars?! Fiero based stuff..Datsun based stuff...wtf?!

Wheel gaps are always the main problems with these things. Oi.

The work is simply amazing. It's too bad that it's all fiberglass though. One fender-bender and the entire car is gonna implode. Also it sucks that they put ferrari badges on it.
However, if there is one japanese car that could pull of the sound of a ferrari the NSX is it. Will a full Titanium exhaust the NSX sounds very similar to a ferrrari V12.

I like the wheels they put on the "Ferrari."
Shoulda put them on the NSX and called it a day.

i like the work they did to it.. and also the car.. i think it looks good.. yea its not a real ferrrari. but still none the less looks almost like the real one.. i think its the same as people buying a WRX and puttin an STI trunk, wing, scoop, and rims on it.. just they did it on a much higher scale.. my .02

Its really not THAT bad... The front through mid section looks great. The only part that I think could use work is the rear spoiler thing and that area.. Someone could photoshop this to look just right. They only messed up alittle, I say they did well though. Yet leaving a NSX is just as effective. Lol

People who can afford a used NSX but not a ferrari do this.
People who can afford a WRX but not an STI buy the STI goodies to put on their WRX.
I think the workmanship, and quality of all the parts are very well done. And took probably more man hours then what most of us put into our cars. The end result looks really good. (it's not my taste) but the car looks great!
I wonder how much weight was gained by all of that foam and fiberglass. it looks like there is quite a lot of it on there.

Yeah, but they look like old a$$ testarossa's. And in the end you still have a car with a horrible interior. I think the NSX is the best fake ferrari yet.

ive seen fieros with a 360 bodys and interiors. i do agree the ones that are made to look like the older models do blow.

The bulge in the center off the hood looks too pointed and too high, and I think the ferrari has chome accents?
