Default Ferrari Testarossa replica with 350 Chevrolet motor



If you want to skip the music the engine starts at 1:38.

Thats very nice!! However my friend has a Testarossa replica that is out of this world. Its probably the best Ferrari Replica ever made. Even puts mine to shame.

Wow! That is soo close to the real car until you see the engine. As much money as it took to make that he could've had a real one by now.

Every TR replica I have ever seen looks like utter crap (first post of this thread included.)

This is the first really nice TR replica I've ever caught a glimpse of. Tell your friend he did very nice work! The body looks 100% like the real deal from that video.

I agree the 1st one looks like crap. Unless you looked at the engine on the other one or the VIN number you couldn't tell.

That is impressive! Still sounds like a Pontiac when he opens and closes that door, though!

What did that car cost to put together? Granted, it's a really sweet replica but could it have been THAT much cheaper to build then just to buy a real one?

Not sure. But you can own it for $29,900 firm. Anyone serious I can get you his phone number.

That is a heck of a deal.
