at this point I'm too afraid to ask why not just get a kit at this point
simple bear
Probably would've been cheaper
dim goblet
for sure cheaper
also I'm wondering more and more how much damn effort it would take for a brand to remake one of their iconic cars
fathom brook
Isnt the only hard part the emissions and new safety laws
dim goblet
like Porsche is already so close with thier legacy cars, it wouldn't take that much effort to remake a first gen 911 right ? You only modernize the entertainment system, make it more reliable with newer techniques and nothing else, no electric, no weight change, no BS
dim goblet
Isnt the only hard part the emissions and new safety laws
well yeah that could probably be the hard part, but I'm sure there is some way, it would sell like crazy especially if they're the first brand to do it
just imagine a 2026 F40, like the real deal but more affordable and where you're not afraid to take it out as much
I'm no expert but for example there is the Rhino which is a kit car but road legal IN EUROPE https://rhinoracing.eu/rr01
and idk if they use an old chassis with a VIN, but singer literally does it edit: they literally have a relationship with them https://www.topgear.com/car-news/retro/singers-engines-will-now-be-built-porsche

Maybe you’re right, I didn’t do an extensive research. I’m pretty sure those adjustments are for minor stuff like less annoying stuff restricted here. Another example is the red turn signals, it doesn’t make it safer (I’d say it’s even the opposite), but it’s probably a cheaper version with only 1 LED for it
