    Here's the thing, if it had more "stately" wheels, it would look much better.
    There's craftsmanship, but it lacks taste.

    I was thinking the same thing. The front and back are pretty good, actually. It's the sides (the skirting especially) and the wheels that end up being off.

    Doesn't actually look toooooo bad, except for the color of the hood and all of the RR emblems on it. Why try to make it into something that it's not? I'm just sayin'.

    Silver Seraphs are just heavily modified E38s. (for all intents and purposes)

    Ironically, the OEM engine cover on a silver seraph will fit. (they were M73 powered)

    There should be a law against something like this.

    Its price, I'm sure, was marked up from the BMW to a Rolls-Royce level too, haha.

    5.0 liter BMW V12 Lamborghini Diablo Replica
    The engine is a 5.0L BMW V12 connected to an Audi 5000 transmission. Maded the replica chassis and suspension to fit the body and wheel selection. The brakes are Corvette C6 Z06. BMW V12 engine with a real Lamborghini muffler after the cats have been removed. The engine bay temperatures have dropped significantly and as a result the engine is performing much better.

    I believe that GTO replica is the one put together by a couple of LADIES here in Chicago, since sold as they've acquired a real Ferrari.
    The E32 "Rolls" is ridiculous and also humiliating for that E32 750 which was a superior car to its contemporary Rolls.

    If you can leave two black stripes from the exit of one corner to the braking zone of the next, you have enough horsepower. - Mark Donohue
