Noticed a slick old Fierro at a dealership that advertised with us. Asked about it and they had either bought it at a sale or taken it in on trade. Wildwood brakes, Eibach suspension. 18" expensive wheels. They couldn't get engine cover open but told me that it had a Northstar caddy engine in it. They would sell me some things at what they had it em. $4500. I was in. Cranked it up. Instantly knew...no Northstar. Told em, not really car guys, they just sold em, "may be a Cadillac engine but ain't no Northstar". Finally got hatch up. Yep, Cadillac boat anchor engine. Dude that built it was using money that he embezzled from company he worked for so spared no expense. EXCEPT he got screwed on the engine. Was supposed to be the Northstar. Wuda been ultimate sleeper. Well, after quieting it down a bit. Sounded like loud GT Mustang. Ran ok but nothing like a Northstar would have. Bought it anyway. Great paint, cold air, ran cool so really too good to cut and stretch for Lambo kit. So traded it for bought half of cost to build my 40x60x13 garage. I did ok. BTW, this guys kit car looked great but did nothing to dress up engine bay plus there are several places that will drop a LS Vette engine or Northstar in there and done right. At least be able to kinda back up the look. My opinion and have the real thing but kits are still cool done right. L8r

@@warrenelyk2593Preciate the read and reply. Had tune up and complete service on an '09 Gallardo....over $6,000. Just rwd so a kit with the right setup could hang with it and possibly kick it's butttt. Had a '78 Countach, last year of carburetors and no wing or fender flairs. Still wicked cool and ahead of it's time. Closest Lamborghini dealer was in Atlanta and entry fee was a thousand dollars. The complete service, cam belts, adjust valves and all the rest in early '80's was in the thousands. Heavy hit back then. Shuda, cuda, wuda kept it and several other "exotics" but cudn't stand the upkeep plus didn't have garage space for all of em. So went back to old, and new, Corvettes. Of course the new Vette is just a Ferrari in disguise. Chevrolet spent millions to get exhaust so it doesn't sound like a Ferrari as engine is a copy also. So what is first thing new owners change? Exhaust so it sounds like a Ferrari. Doubt i ever own one unless someone wants to trade for a 1967 black Tri-Power coupe. Only 32 black Tri-Power coupes made. Hagerty sez they can only account for 5 remaining ones. This has bout 800hp. Not perfect original but doable. Thanks again.

Lamborghini Kit cars/replica are nice to look at but driving one is a whole different thing. I drove a Diablo VT kit car and I must say it really looked like the real thing but it drove like a go kart/ poorly. As I picked up speed everything sounded like it was going to fall apart. Again the kit was build to with stand bumps and sorta high speed but the sound and noise said a different thing. My personal opinion in terms of buying one you only buying the looks and the attention. At the end of the day it's still a kit car and chance are you will get tired just driving the thing. As for this kit car you can tell some parts of the car is a bit off but over all it's a really nice kit. As for price I wouldn't pay no more than $25k to $30K. Again you're just buying a expensive Pontiac Fiero with a kit. Btw I believe this guy is selling his as of right now on FB marketplace asking $70K.

It is one thing to replicate a look you can check back and forth countless times. But creating a driveable car is something you have to have knowledge about and import all of that in the build from the start. All you can do later is adjust coils, tire pressure and maybe some tidbits but that's it. If the chasis has a bad joint creating or multiplying vibrations you can't do anything about it anymore once it's done.
