NSX converted to Ferrari

NSX to Ferrari conversion.
Insane bodywork, but not digging the end result.
(56k beware)

Damn that's a lot of work. Good work, too. The front end looks great, not so crazy about the back though. I thought the NSX looked fine to begin with, but that's just me.

Great link.

I bet if they paid themselves $10 an hour for all the work they did on that, they could have Bought a Ferrari!

They ripped a fine aluminum body off an NSX and replaced it with a ton of ugly fiberglas. Why, oh why?

I gotta admit the guy that did that has some amazing skills with fiberglass, but a I think a stock nsx looks pretty cool as is...but to each his own..

They did pretty good work. From the rear, it looks right on. The front is also really damn close to the real thing. The only bad angle is from the front-side view where the side of the rear wing looks like a giant slab. I'm not into fake cars, especially Ferraris, but it's a damn good job nonetheless.

I can just imagine driving next to that thing with my brother in the car.

Steve: Umm, is that an F-50?
Me: I doubt it ... actually, that does kind of look like it
Steve: Sweet, do we have a camera in the car?
(The F-50 accelerates and passes us)
Me: Uh, Steve, is it just me or did that Ferrari have VTEC?

I wonder if they can do that with my Neon. Why would you do that to a beautiful NSX? Makes me want to cry. Spend the money on a giant turbo charger and some engine mods. That's a lot of work, but retarded to ruin a perfectly fine NSX. I could see it if the NSX had major body damage.

nice work, but no real point. i can understand kit cars in some cases (even though this wouldnt really be a kit), but thi sone just doesnt make any sense to me at all.

i tend to like nsx's, even though they are due for a bit of a touch up.

Gos to show you that rich people are idiots. Gonna take a very nice expensive car and pay to have it look like a ferrari when you could have purchased a ferrari in the first place. Not only that but also publishing it on the internet and god knows where else, ferrari doesn't take too kindly to people making non-ferrari cars look like ferrari's (the whole ferris bueller's day off ferrari look alike comes to mind, man did that company go bankrupt)

No reason to jump to conclusions and call them idiots. Maybe they did it as a showcase for their skills. Maybe it was a contest of some sort. But I really doubt they did it seriously to "own a ferrari" or trick people into thinking they truely own a ferrari.

A Ferrari...yes. This Ferrari? Not unless they worked for 45,000 hours at $10 an hour...on top of the price of the NSX...

They should have left it alone. Whay take a reliable NSX and try to make it look like an unreliable Ferrari?

I just noticed that if the car is in japan, why is the NSX/Ferrari or whatever you call it now, left hand drive?
Im guessing its the in thing to have USDM stuff in japan, just like how everybody here wants JDM. j/k
