now i can understand some of the reps but some i dont just get?
i like the idea of somthing like a old jag shape style body (d-e type) with some more modern jag bits and bobs making it cheaper, lighter, better and more relible or one of the v8 cobra reps even the other take i get is a moden restyle rep or an almost exact copy of somthing rare or vertulely unavaible like a stratos copy makes some sence to me ones i dont get are things like a rs200 rebody of a austin maestro or turning a soft jap small sports car into somthing that looks like an italian fire breather that hasnt been about long enough to have any form of cult. i think the only mr2 rebody i thort was any good was that dino but i would have to go v6 |

I don't really see the appeal of what is essentially a heavy bodykit mounted onto an existing car like the MR2. If anything it's going to be slower than if it was just left alone due to the weight.
Has anyone seen the one available for the MX-5 that makes it look like a shrunken Aston Vantage? On the whole though, I have no issue with replica's. Some of them are just incredible and as said, surpass the original in terms of engineering because of the modern parts used. Pick any one of the GT40/Cobra/Stratos replicas for an example. Did anyone see the Diablo replica featured in Complete Kit Car with a custom space frame, and quad-turbo BMW V12?? |
