Now, if its this easy to make a car look like a Ferrari....

Now, if its this easy to make a car look like a Ferrari, then making a car look like a 1982 Trans-Am has to be a breeze.

This kit car ended up as an Acura NSX, but among the 14 million pictures, it started out being molded as a Ferrari F-50. What actual car is this, though?

Oops, when I looked at the link, I thought it was one picture of the NSX. My bad, I didnt noticed there was a huge page.

Wow that's pretty ingenious. I liked those pimped out vans in the background too. :lol:

It started as an NSX and ended up as the Ferrari F-50.

I think they should take off or lower the spoiler, and it'd be decent.

Ah, I went by the order of the pictures. Just assumed the final product was at the top, thanks. :)

Which is why I once asked- Can it be done for a 1982 Trans Am?

That Acura NSX mod was nothing more than a paint job and spoiler fitting. You can still identify that as an Acura, because it's not very similar in appearance to the F50.

Exactly what I wanted to say all along. You have something that's reliable, pocket-light and easy to keep running, but looks like a Pontiac Trans Am. However, some purists on this forum (there is one too many) seem to object- "Convert a Honda into a Trans Am? No Way!"

Why not?
