Just yesterday I was at autox, Salt Creek Sports Car Club at Joliet Junior College, and I saw a car badged as a ferrari. The drooling had already started as I walked over to look into the hood. I saw nissan on the engine. It turned out that this was a 280z with a Ferrari 250 GTO body kit. Upon further inspection some of the Ferrari emblems were on crooked. Since american car trying to be japanese is considered rice, could a japanese (or american import) trying to be italian be considered pasta?

I just found this kinda funny, It would ave been respectible if not for the slantwise emblems. I will post pics as soon as someone post them on the Salt Creek site.

I'm not sure if it'd had been better if it was a Fiero instead of the Z...

I'm leaning towards yes though cuz the Z is teh sex without some dumb ferrari kit...
