Owner used Honda NSX to create a Ferrari replica that’s more expensive than the real thing

  • This guy created a Ferrari replica using a Honda NSX

This guy in Switzerland did something unthinkable with a Honda NSX and a Ferrari 360 Modena replica.

Actually, let’s rephrase that.

This guy did something unthinkable to a Honda NSX in order to create his DIY Ferrari 360 replica.

And now the car costs more than a real Ferrari 360 Modena.

How this guy turned a Honda NSX into a Ferrari replica

This guy in Switzerland built a Ferrari 360 Modena replica using a Honda NSX as a canvas for his creation.

There’s nothing wrong with this Ferrari replica per se, but perhaps there is something wrong about using a valuable car to build one.

Supercar replicas exist in a gray area, because they’re not illegal, but they’re generally not worth much, mainly because automakers hate them.

By contrast, a Honda NSX is rare and valuable, and so the idea of dismantling one to create a replica car worth a lot less is bizarre.

This actually brings us on the whole point of this kit car, because this guy clearly thinks replicas can be worth a lot of cash.

He’s trying to sell this ‘fake’ Ferrari for $81,300, which means it is actually more expensive than a real Ferrari 360.

We should point out that this guy apparently owns 17 cars so he probably just did this for fun, not for the cash.

The ‘problem’ with kit cars

People use the term ‘kit car’ for anything, from DIY creations such as this Ferrari, the world’s only Nissan GT-R wagon or the weird Lamborghini Gallardo Frankencar we mentioned a while back.

Crucially, the same description is often used for kit cars created from scratch by actual companies, not DIY enthusiasts.

They key difference is the use of existing intellectual property.

Translated: kit cars built from zero don’t upset anybody, but a ‘fake’ Ferrari based on a Honda NSX, while not illegal, is probably not making Ferrari or Honda particularly happy.
