I can't see any similarity, personally. But I'm not trying to spoil anyone's fun :-)

Hi Doug

Cheers!

But in a lot of ways I think I still prefer the XJS although I think an etype Bar Grill would have been nice

Any CAD guys want to mock one up so we can see

 

Of course, one of the advantages of a clone is that they don't cost this much, at least most of them don't;
Used FERRARI 365 GTB/4 DAYTONA “SPYDER” for sale | PistonHeads UK

 

That's what the 1978 Pininfarina XJS Spider concept would have given us. I remember seeing it at the Motor Show and thinking it was just stunning

Hi Guys

Imagine seeing this coming at you in your Rear View Mirror!

 

Hi Paul (ptjs)

That's what we are talking about!

If only they had made that dream a reality, it may have been even better than a Ferrari

P.S. (ptjs) When you had a Test Drive in the Daytona, can you remember what body parts you had to leave behind, just in case you went and wrote it off!

 

Hi Steve

Nice!

But for the sake of only another half mill, I think I'd rather Splash the Cash and go and get the real thing!

 

You're doing 200 mph and you get the Sun in your eyes!!!!!

 

A point of history... the cars were made by "kit car" mfg McBurnie in California. Ferrari served them a "Cease and Dessist" order on the Tessa Rossa. They claimed trademark infringement. When they made California Daytona knock-off, Ferrari went to high courts and got an international law against them, which proved to be the death nell of the Kit Car industry. GM was involved on the side since it was well known a corvette hid under the fiberglass. GM's involvement made it apply equally in North America.n
McBurie folded shop in the late 80's.

TSK! What's the matter with you guys?!
I can see the similarities right off!!
They're both RED!!

 

Im guilty of having a few beers and thinking a 6 looks like a 10. Happens to the best of us

 

Yes L, but there is red and then there is Rosso Corsa, subtle difference.
