Meant no insult.

I'm not a computer guy, either. I copied and pasted the characters into Google, then hit the link that says "Translate this page."

kjc2050 05-28-2014 03:28 PM

Of course, I could be wrong... maybe those characters don't stand for "Lucas."

ルーカス 05-28-2014 03:58 PM

LOL well this thread has been an utter fail. Yes, you call me Lucas out loud, had a hard time thinking about a forum name...

Honestly, I've seen Fieros with Vette motors that were great cars. Making it into a Ferrari is stupid.

ルーカスさん、日本語が話しますか。貴方は正しいです。その車は醜いだよ!

ルーカス 05-29-2014 03:23 AM

LOL. ありがとう.. Any one else on the replicas?

What in the heazy is that?

rp17 05-29-2014 06:37 PM

Yeah I wouldn't mind a 550 spyder replica or shelby cobra. Thats about it.

healthservices 05-29-2014 08:01 PM

Done right, reps rule!

I would never drive a real cobra or afford one. Heck a good rep cobra is major coin.

This is just epic. Re-defines fail. Looks like it should transform into a feminine protection product in a Michael Bay movie. LOL....thanks for the link.

I got to give this old fiero a 9/10. Not bad for a base $31k + options!

Don't know if this is a Beck or not, but this replica that appeared at a recent PCA event was simply gorgeous:

The boxster does seem to be a very popular car for kits these days with most the Pontiacs destroyed already haha.
