The title for today's Nice Price or Crack Pipe was pulled straight from the ad for this Mitsubishi 3000GT modified to look like a Ferrari. Lose money or not, that bold pronouncement of course leads to the question: is the price for this replica reprehensible?
Like Rodney Dangerfield, Pontiac's Fiero never seemed to get any respect. Today's Nice Price or Crack Pipe Canadian Fauxrarri isn't going to change that, but does this one at least come with a price that's respectable?
If you didn't get enough terrible MR2 modification yesterday allow us to present to you this 2002 Toyota MR2 Spyder with a "Custom F360" kit on it. The current owner has decided it is time for someone else to take on the burden of owning this bizarre Toyota based Faux-rrari and listed the car for sale on Ebay.
Only 122 real 365 GTS/4 Spiders were ever built and they now regularly command upwards of a million bucks. Today's McBurnie-built Nice Price or Crack Pipe Faux-rrari is only thirty five grand, but it still looks like a million.

Since the small-block Chevy can be made to churn out power well beyond anything ever put in a factory Daytona, a Corvettari can be very quick (though the Corvette suspension…

You Ferrari fanciers have no doubt been pointing and hooting at the Fauxborghinis of last week's Backyard Lambo Of The Day series. Not so fast, signore!

What we have here is a 1974 Porsche 914 with a Chevy 350 engine and a Ferrari-influenced body kit, sort of a German Malaise version of the Fierrari.
