Two Ferrari F430 replicas on Ebay right now. One is pretty impressive:

The other, well, not so...

The car has been wrapped in carbon fibre, which shows a few creases, but nothing majorly noticeable.

by reading the add it would sound like he's just selling the engine, no surprise as the car looks like its held together by rust alone

Much as I hate replicas, I must admit that the pug 406 coupe based version is actually far far closer in shape and proportion than the mr2 based ones. Unfortunately that one looks like it was put together by a 5 year old.

Both look horrible, just like the 355 ones that came before it.
Anyone remember the f40 kit build for the tr7? nicknamed the 'TR40@ of course.
