A lot of older and middle aged people randomly ask me "what car is it?" when I eat out on my lunch break. Probably because I debadged it and put the Toyota badges back on.

My sister came to visit over the weekend, "What the hell, you got a Ferrari?"

(I don't think I'm ever going to correct her)

I always thought this car looked a bit Ferrari-ish

I like to think of it as a mini Ferrari

I've always said it looks like a baby Porsche. If only I would wake up one day and it had suddenly matured into a grown-up Porsche!

I think the 350/370z's look like Porsches.

I think our cars look closest to maserati's.

Same here I see one at the Westfield mall all the time and mistake it for an FRS,
I'm pretty sure I saw a post awhile back where an FRS had a Maserati front end on it, anyone have a link to it or did i just day dream this?
