Fiero suspension capabilities compared to a nsx suspension hmmm one is dangerous and one is tight , I think the nsx is a better replica car idea than a fiero death machine just my 2cents lol sure is a pretty replica tho

Re: Its a black Ferrari F50 right? wrong!

The NSX is a good car, and in demand. This car appears to have been built in Japan. The video is on YouTube. THere's NO WAY it costs anywhere near what a real F-50 costs. It's sad that the folks that did this couldn't take the time to design their own car. The video shows them using a scale model as the pattern for the original molds. They made a positive from foam (on the NSX) and then lifted a negative master. Alot of work! And Ferrari will sue them if tehy attempt to go into production. Ferrari's been very fast in the past to sue...
