Looks kind of ok from the rear/front three quarter view. Side on unfortunately it's hilariously bad :ROFLMAO:
I love that they've stuck a prancing horse decal on the oil filler cap - I'm not sure that's going to fool too many people that there's another four pots in there somewhere...:poop:;)

So very 80’s. There were quite a few different body kits out there for the C4 many of them based on “the car “ of the mid 80’s the Ferrari red head. My boss bought one new in 1984 after my suggestion. He was a British car fan, Rolls, Aston, Bristol. Bought a new car every year, didn’t sell the old one, just kept it. I sold the Ferrari to a yuppie in 1989 for 150k. ( he paid £62,666.66 for it in 1984. I wrote the cheque out for it)

This was another popular kit for the C4 “The stalker” I actually bought this kit and put it on a C4. Didn’t like it one bit, but the first person who saw it did and bought it.

Of course another very popular 80’s addition to the C4 was the wooden dash. ( with or without removing the passenger side bump pad)
I must admit I liked and still like the wood effect panels once fitted.

Buddy of mine has currently run up to 209000 miles on his 5th generation Shelby GT500 which he has owned since new - he previously had a Ferrari 512 (follow-up to the Testarossa) which he bought with nominal mileage, owned for 15 years or so and put around 150000 miles on it.

This is the bodykit I’ve always loved, ever since I first saw it on Brian Neighbours 89 callaway, after he had it put on.

Not mine I might add:
Hmm not that keen on a lot of these re ferrari kits but Id rather have a c4 underneath it than an MR2, the auto kraft daytona spyder tho is in a different league , have you seen the price those are bringing 🥵👍. I once saw an escort xr3 with a testa rossa styled body kit 😀

Yes, those Daytona kits have really increased in price. The Mcburnie kit as used in Miami vice has gone sky high in the last few years. They really were a very realistic copy depending on how far the original purchaser wanted to put into the car.

Totally agree about Auto Kraft Daytona Spyder , brings back memories of Sonny Crocket`s wheels in Miami Vice , soooooooo 80`s cool !!!
MR2`s are best left as they are , cracking little cars . A few power tweaks and suspension mods made it a real pocket rocket . To my mind the other top notch Ferrari look alike is the P4 replica . A Sporting Bears mate of mine built a stunning Ford 427 powered one himself . It looked awesome and sounded even better !! He is a very talented engineer who also built his own steel hulled yacht and sailed it around the world . Don`t you just hate some people for being so damned good at everythingP4 Replica.jpg ?? 🤢
