    Abandoned Ferrari F40 In Bad Condition

    The owner wanted to swap the engine with a V6 engine (that's what the mechanic told me!) so he left it like that for months without even asking about it.. I don't think it's a replica, everything looks original except the engine.. or is it a replica?

    lol, please tell me you are joking. Its definately a replica no question, for a start it has a boot and is front engines judging by the length of the bonnet and lack of engine in the back. Looks to be based on a c4 corvette or something similar

    It's defenetly replica, looks like it been build on Pontiac Fiero chassis. Atleast the interior is from Fiero.

    I imagine you read what you wrote and have seen the pictures you've take.
    Now how in hell do you think this combines into a logic assumption that its a not a replica ?
    I am easily satisfied with the very best.

    Replica and a bad replica! A Fiero born in the wrong body or, if you prefer, a Michael Jackson Fiero thing...

    Lower it.
    I'm dropping out to create a company that starts with motorcycles, then cars, and forty years later signs a legendary Brazilian driver who has a public and expensive feud with his French teammate.

    Then place it on top of a building just before demolotion.

    Swapping a V6? At least he had the right idea for a replica in the engine department.

    Its a bad replica but the body looks somewhat like the F40. At least the owner had the decency to treat it as he should any replica: let it sit and rot!!

    EDIT: Look at Pic 4 and you can even see the outline of the Fireo in the truck inside!
