What the fu...? How?
I totally get where you're coming from. This guy spent WAY more time and effort building his Countach than Lamborghini actually did, and I'm almost positive his replica is better than the original. It's probably much more comfortable and infinitely more drive-able than the real thing (I've driven a real Countach, and…
I'd say: Every jump in Blues Brothers.
It's unimaginably sad when someone dies in a car accident, and my thoughts go out to his parents... I hope I never have to go though something like this.
I honestly prefer replica cars. I love authentic automotive icons, but there something great about having a great pretender, and being able to make it better than the original. Take (for example) the Porsche 904: an absolutely brilliant street-legal race car. While the Carrera 4-cam is an amazing engine, there's…
I think that's why they called it a "Replica". I think you are the one that inferred that it was being regarded as a kit.

Guh... Los Gatos. I got kicked out of the Bently dealership there. I dressed the part and acted like I had money, and managed to talk my way into a test drive of a Gallardo (those guys abuse those cars. They'll go up Monte Sereno to Saratoga and back, doing burnouts and power slides... some of the tires you changed…

I think that the 328 is a wonderful car. I've driven one on a few occasions, and I found it to be extremely comfortable (for a mid engine sports car) it's very predictable, very civilized, and definitely has the power when you want it. I'm a driver, and I love cars with insane performance, and even though this is a…
There is no car on the planet that would make me park like an ass-hat. I pride myself on being an incredibly good driver (seriously, I'm fantastically talented behind the wheel) and regardless of what or where I'm driving, whether it be hooning my Porsche on a windy mountain road, or plodding through a parking lot in…

You must be one of those dealership mechanics that blasts around in customer's cars.
My vote goes to the Mk1 Volkswagen Scirocco. The GTI gets all the attention and love, but the simple fact is; the Scirocco was a better car. Lower genter of gravity, better balance, infinitely better looking... It's a shame that automotive history has relegated this masterpiece to a somewhat obscure autocross car or…
