Something looks a little funny about that car. I think it is actually a Fierarri.

The fact that smoke is comming out of one bank(exhaust) and the top looks wierd, and maybe it has drum brakes also! I just doubt someone who has that money, would put it on a Uhaul trailer, but hey, thats my 2c. Also the ferrari emblen on the front fender doesn't look right.

Gotcha, is the car still there? can you "snoop" like a National Enquirer reporter, and snap some more photos? Less of the guys butt though! It may be real, but it does just "look" different. Maybe its just the fact it is on a U-Haul trailer! did you hear it running then, sound ferrari? Did the "owner" have a bud-light, or "Git-R-done" shirt on? did you get a tooth count when he smiled?

Just want to know.

here's a real one:



In the orig. post, the door line is quite different, the panels don't fit well, the front bumper looks too squarish, etc. Def. a faker! Oh yeah, and the wheels on that orig. one are clearly "replica"...

There is no prancing horse on the "real" fender either, I thought that was out of place. I call faker also! the front on captain uhauls, is longer also from front of front wheel well to the front of bumper. There is also too many "lights" on the fender, plus the one by the PEP-BOYS prancing horse sticker. but it is a fairly nice looking kit though. Its definetly NOT as obviously a fake like the Fiero-Lamborgini's are!
