Imitation...The Greatest Form of Flattery? Kit Cars

[StanAE86]

I'm not an expert, but some kit cars look pretty good to me, until you get into the details and the motor. It makes me wonder how many people I've given a thumbs up to...are actually driving a kit car? This past weekend, I saw a young guy in a Diablo Roadster and gave him a thumbs up...was it real? He was really young...but in the Bay Area, there's techies, and a young millionaire isn't out of the ordinary...but still...

I'm not talking about kits like this one, which claims to be "the best Diablo kit around"...ummm...around Jupiter, maybe. Can you please yell "FIERO" with me?

I'm talking about something like this...where you can get tube framed chassis, etc. It's impressive at the very least. Look at the gallery:
