Wireframe Lamborghini

We've all seen the guy that built a Lamborghini replica in his basement.

This is equally cool and probably much cheaper and less effort:

Cool stuff, I wonder if he ever considered using neon.

The lighting effects to take the photos are an art of their own.

Dude needs a girlfriend. And that in neon would be cool but virtually impossible on that scale. a) Neonn is not that structually strong. and b) Most of the longer body lines would have to be in several pieces to for the lighting to be right.

But the guy who built the one in his basement can drive it.

Yeah, neat, but you can't drive it. It doesn't have a 500hp Ford V-8 with a bundle of snakes header system.
