Kit Cars are the downfall of any car enthusiast.

They make classic cars with heritage and race history into status symbols with no meaning, you ruin the value of the original car (ie ford ac cobras), and anyone worth a salt will know the difference between them, the idea behind these cars is the design and ability of their time, anyone can make a fast car nowadays but in the 30s through the 60s they were coming up with the ideas of superchargers and turbos and suspension systems, aerodynamics, and style. And just try to duplicate the sound of a ferrari v12 with 6 weber carbs.

Going out and trying to duplicate enzo's designs just so you can drive down the street in a faux ferrari makes anyone look like a idiot. People can see the difference and the minute they realize it you just lost any repsect you might of had, be original or be laughed at.
