OK, it is wrong, but since Fiat owns Dodge and Ferrari I can reconcile it to some minor degree. How’s that for rationalizing?
Two Tamiya Enzo bodies were sacrificed, and one Lindberg SnapKit Caravan was used for the base. The front of the Enzo “body kit’ was widened a scale 12.5 inches. The rear bumper and lower sections of the fenders were fabbed up from sheet styrene.
The Enzo engine, trans and rear suspension was also used along with a few scratch built and machined parts in the interior and on the engine. Wheels are Tamiya Porsche units with machined outer rims and trim rings. Tires are from a Tamiya GTR.
A set of Enzo tailpipes are behind the mesh in the rear bumper, and a radiator with twin fans resides behind the front grille. A reflective coating was applied to the headlight covers and it changes from gold to blue depending on the light.
A Revell ‘69 Hemi Charger scoop and hood section were grafted into the smoothed out Caravan roof. The rear wing is from an Acura Integra. SMS decals for the C/F.
I opted for a suede gray finish to further the odd stealthy look I saw in it as it developed. And to give it a bit more of a sinister attitude.

Sick build! It's great when a crazy idea comes to life! Can we get some "lower" photos? like we where standing on the ground?

Really not a fan of the design aspect, in particular, both the Didge and Enzo nose together. I would have gone with one of the other. Your bodywork is perfect tho! And neat concept overall!

Great model. A beautiful execution of a left-field idea. I love it!

This build makes me smile - very creative. It could maybe have used a stronger colour, but overall your build skills really shine through.

Dude, that's mean machine! The engine sound on the drivers seat must be killing!

That grey/blue combo is magic! I may have to use it one of these days.

Rating system still make me smile.... for sure this build deserve much more.
TBH I don't like so much the design and the livery also but those are taste's... what I would like is the overall finishing quality on a tricky job, superb.
