Listen people, just because one guy built a really
kickass Lamborghini replica doesn't mean all of you are qualified to do the same. Case in point is this "Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 GT" built on the bones of a Pontiac Solstice. The buy-it-now price on this jewel is a modest $70,000, and for that you get styling resembling the bastard spawn of a Murcielago and a fat-bottomed Lotus Elan. Bottom line: Dressing up a Solstice as a Lamborghini will fool nobody this Halloween.

We've seen a lot of
Fierraris lately, hopefully the world runs out of
Fieros eventually so we aren't subjected to the ongoing night terrors they induce, but this one is particularly brash. This p**sy magnet yellow Fierrari Enzno is perhaps the finest example of the breed, complete with crooked, off-brand Ferrari prancing horse logos, four off-kilter exhaust tips, pop-up DVD player, brilliantly executed engine-cover-mounted TV antenna, luxurious APC racing seats... the list goes on and on. The best part is this car's claim to fame.

Straight from the bowels of eBay comes the Salet GT5 Concept. We'll have to admit this is one of the better Toyota MR2 custom builds we've seen, but we're betting the 19 PSI turbo system will have that four cylinder blowing oil all over the fire wall in no time. It will be a quick car until that happens though, power is a claimed 302 HP and with such a light car it's probably a hoot. This one comes from the always unpredictable fakers at
rarecars.org who seem to have a penchant for building exotic cars based on the Fiero. Why does this remind us of a certain horrible yellow
Russian Cayenne? [

offbeat news
One upping the shenanigans of
Unique Performance, a group of fine Italian coach builders has been caught by the police after attempting to forge supercars - badly. Seems these upstanding fellows thought slapping some kit car bodies onto the delightful chassis of GM's famed Fiero was a great idea, then the plan was to pass them off as one of Italy's most famous exports. We're not convinced, we're barely even holding in the laughter. The best is the buff mag on the work bench being used for inspiration. The
Wall Street Journal article about this story seems to have only gotten the story partly right (typical).
