    Am I seeing this right? The steering wheel is on the passenger side but the shifter is still to the right (next to the door)? And it's got a current NYS inspection sticker while my suby doesn't.

    I need to clear out the basement and start building one of these stat.

    And if you want a replica, RCR sells kits, minus drivetrain, for $25-$45k. They are northeast of Detroit at 16 and Groesbeck.

    Pffft, only two exhausts? That is so 1960's!

    What an amazing car that is, it's cool how much P4/5 you can see in it.

    Mr. Glickenhaus, I'm actually your son, you must give me all your cars.

    @Miscellanea can finally edit his name... brakes...: I was just scanning the comments before saying the same thing.

    To those complaining that the 458's windshield is too far forward and the window-line to low, I say "Suck it". I think this glorious P3/4 proves that the 458 is a nice return to where Ferrari came from.

    @DrewComments2.0: The P3/4, like the E-type, is function following function with gorgeous results. Perhaps the same can be said of the 458; certainly it has spent far more time being aerodynamically optomized than the '60s best guesses. Perhaps I simply like the detailing of the older cars better. When sex was safe and racing was dangerous, it seems they were unafraid to simply make a car look good and stick the dismount, rather than attempting a daring artistic statement and landing on their face. Design for the sake of design remains distasteful to me, the destruction of a good line to avoid the cliche is an act of soulless laziness, and good design will remain an act of love.

    From Wikipedia:

    "0846, known as the P 3/4 because though it was originally built as a P3 by Ferrari, it was modified in December 1966 to accept a P4 engine while retaining its P3 nose and chassis. This vehicle was badly damaged in an accident at Le Mans and was discarded by Ferrari.[5] Recently, many components of the original P 3/4 0846 appear to have resurfaced in the possession of exotic car collector and enthusiast James Glickenhaus, a former movie director and stock exchange magnate. Although both he and David Piper (from whom he acquired the car) thought it one of four replica chassis constructed with the blessing of Enzo Ferrari in the late 1960s, it appears that nearly all of the tube frame chassis and some other components from the wrecked P3/4 were used in this car.[6] This seeming discovery has stirred much controversy,[7] Ferrari Market Letter recently reported: "While Ferrari insists that 0846 was scrapped and is no more, a car exists with strong claims to be the resurrection of that car." Its tube frame chassis appears to be a P3 modified to hold a P4 engine, as was the case with 0846 exclusively, and the damage from two contemporary racing accidents appears in the frame as well. The car's transmission, engine heads, and steering rack also include the correct Le Mans scrutineering marks, linking them to P3 0846 and P 3/4 0846 of 1966 and 1967. P 3/4 0846 was road tested by Car and Driver magazine."
