I could give a rat's patooty about Ferrari performance or craftsmanship. In case someone might have missed what I said before - I just think the 355 is a dead sexy looking body design. So why, please tell me why, I should worry because someone says "why build something that looks like something else?" My question is: Why not? If it is what I like? You've talked about people not being able to afford it. You've talked about people only wanting the quality. You've talked about a lot of things but still skim over the fact that someone might just like the look of a particular car. Why would that bother you if someone who is not you happened to like a particular production car enough to want one that looks like it?


Why do you think I care if you build one or not? All I'm saying is "I wouldn't do it myself." Whether you do it or not is up to you. I don't care what you spend your money on.

Just trying to get you to see the point I was making... Some people just want a car that looks like a production car because they think it is a great looking car. With no thought to performance, quality, individuality or anything else. For some folks, if they sat down and dreamed up their perfect car it just might look like a car that has already been produced. You just seemed to think there was something wrong with that. I see now that you were just speaking of what your tastes are, but it didn't seem like that without the explanation. It's all good.

We call if discussing over here... Sometimes on the internet it is easy to be misunderstood. So you take a few times to understand what each other is saying.

It is a good looking car. Definitely one of the better kits. I hear Fiero Factory is not building them anymore. Did someone else pick up where they left off?
