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!!!!!
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

2nd again.
and lol to that F355i.
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
