![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Yeah, in fact the whole car looks shorter but bit higher (not only because it sits high), so you can tell it's a replica. It is not as gracile as the original, bit more massive. But a very very nice replica, with a special mention for the awesome interior. I love that thing!! Stunning!

Some replica manufacturers base their cars on the platform of an existing car, I remember there being someone in Germany making Gullwings by replacing the body on W124s or W126s... in that case the car would have the identity of the donor car.
