fair point then, i was only comparing it to the other testarossa(later) pic...they must have facelifted them...the one above must be an early one then.

PMSL @ all the haters

Nope, nope, its deffo a fake

So much for all the so called Ferrari "experts" !!!



If any of you knew anything about this guy and his SERIOUS car collection you would know there is no way he would have a MR2 Testarossa replica !!!




This place really amuses me at times.

This is Java out of the sun:

http://bbs.rsownersclub.co.uk/photop...7/ppuser/10897

Lovely colour but duller than the Signal. There is an orange for the mk2 and believe it or not its called Signal Orange.

Whichever way you wouldn't want either car crushed if they were yours, regardless of colour.
