Why would anyone buy one of these things ?
Sorry but Ill never get down with retro grey market automobiles. Those stangs are straight bootleg in my eyes and titled accordingly. The only reason these even exist is because idiots saw that dumb Nick Cage movie and want an "Eleanor".

Hell no
Hell no
HELL NO
Its not an old school without the ticks and tings, dents and dings the hole in the muffler and other minor things.
Want a vintage car?... build it yourself. These cars are a slap in the face to anyone that restored their own car from the ground up or maintained their vehicle and kept it in the family since new.

Not gonna happen.
These shells only value is replacing rusted out or damaged parts on an original chassis.

Unless you source out an original frame they're build on a tube chassis.
Have fun getting pulled over when a cop runs your plates and thinks your car is stolen because it comes up "Kit Car" or "Handmade" on their computer. Ill give them a pass if its a highly modded track car and they didn't want to cut up an original but 99.9% of these things are lame as hell and so are most people that drive them.

They are officially licensed as spare replacement parts. Sure that dosent stop people from building the whole thing but tube chassis kit cars are not the reason company's gave these the greenlight.
Im no purist when it comes to cars but like I said... Unless your starting with an authentic VIN chassis.... its a bootleg.
Only one company has the licence to build and sell these kit cars from the ground up and they prey upon idiots with too much money that want "the car from the movie" charging 140-180 grand for a car :x
Even then, they still got sued by Shelby and had to remove the "Shelby" name from any replicas they produce.

No doubt, but the illusion only lasts until the car is on a lift and you find out the chassis is made of paperclips.

Umm you know da aftermarket muscle car
companies make complete chassis as well right?
Muscle cars with current technology can be
completely made 100% out of a parts catalog.
GM & Ford still sell crate engines too..muscle
Car clones should NOT be grouped onto this
fiberglass Lamborghini nonsense.
Check out Detroit speed, you can get a complete
Subframe with da latest & greatest in pro touring
Technology has to offer.
Having a OG vin # is pretty much all you need to
Resurrect a rusted out muscle car that u aint trying
To do a complete rotisserie restoration to.

I honestly think it's pretty cool... I know of a few people that have these types of "replica cars" the people I know don't really have financial constraints in terms of purchasing the real versions... instead they enjoy the process of building it themselves with kits (It is however typically older models that are extremely hard to find authentic or are simply to expensive too purchase real due to collector prices). Never really heard of anyone trying to pass one off as real, most people have pics of the entire process in the car and love sharing the process. Really cool to think a 350z can be turned into that imo...
