    Obviously, this is a rather polarizing topic.

    I am not advocating for ANY current cars being converted. However, where we are today, many of these exist from years ago.

    I would like this thread to be for owners to talk about their cars without being flamed.

    What do you like?

    What do you hate?

    What details do drive YOU nuts?

    How do you handle conversations about YOUR car?

    It seems like we all want to disperage REPLICAS here on F-Chat, and I understand that. I hate seeing important, but lower hanging fruit type cars, destroyed - INCLUDING 4 headlight 330's, 365 gt 2+2's, even 365/400/412's....

    The carnage should stop.

    Being realistic, we are here today, with these "UPDATED" cars.

    Who has an "Updated" car and can give us good/bad feedback about THEIR experience?

    Ever since we split the forum, there has been much less talk about recreations. It's kinda sad. There are some amazing recreations/conversions out there.

    The TRC at continental was one of those and it is an amazing car. I saw it in person, and it looked magnificent. Not 100% like a real TRC, but spectacular nonethelss. And it sounded glorious. A lot of car for $320k.

    Same for the Daytona Comp Conversions.
