I dont know why you would try and turn an nice NSX into a ferrari replica, but these guys thought it might be a good idea.

:repost:

Nsx ---> F50

It was in a different section tho.

btw, that's a lot of work...

they did a great job on it, but I think, given the choice, I'd rather keep it as an NSX.

I've always wondered how much weight was added to that car.

You think he could have at least found a wrecked NSX to do that too.

You have to admire the work and skills though. Maybe he has plans for a Factor X FX500 turbo kit

That should handle any added weight the car may have now

I just hate seeing an NSX destroyed like that. The body on the NSX is a work of art.

Replacing it with a fibergalss kit car esque body seems like a crime to me. It still wound up looking more like a kit car than a ferrari to me.

I think the original NSX looks more exotic to a real car guy. This looks like a fiberglass kit to anyone who knows a little about cars. If I saw that car in the U.S. i would assume it was built on a fiero frame. The extra weight of the fiberglass would upset the balance of a near perfect balanced car.

That is one amazing work of art. I guess japanese guys are tired of seeing more NSX in Japan so they changed the body for something wild and different = Ferarri. Mad props for them.
