It still has that "something is not quite right with it" look
Proportions are wrong, plus the paint is so dull compared to how a normal F430 would be

It is too small and the dash is still stock MR2.

I reckon it looks excellent, as if anyone walking past is going to know its a replica, just wack some 5% tint on to hide the interior from prying eyes.

Even if no one else knows it is a replica, you know, therefore that car is garbage, unless you are an obnoxious ostentatious cheap poser

I would buy one that made from NSX.
NSX got the right size for the body and the sound the V6 VTEC YO!!!!! :lol:
Not to say NSX-R par with ferrari's 360 or bites 430's tail in Nurburgring lap times.

The size just ain't looking right with the replica from mr2.

Trust me I practiced a lot of restraint when I posted that.
NSX, no less an NSX-R, something that should be in a museum and he is talking about chopping it up...
This should really be an immediate ban even on a Mitsubishi forum ;)

Should steal it and swap it with my bosses. see how long it takes him to reliase half the engine's gone.
Same color too, so would take him a while to realise.

Actually (I hope I don't get flamed) but from most Ferraris I've seen/heard they seem to sound like sh!t in the low rpm range. They only sound good when they're driven like a race car
