OT but WOW 356A speedster
 

Check out this beauty, I know it's in the same price range as an SC/Carrera but just look at it. It really does look brand new :eek: http://www.californiaclassix.com/garage.html

Thats w replica made by Vintage Speedsters. The dash is a dead giveaway as it doesn't have the double tuck. Check out www.vintagespeedsters.com. Most of the recent movies you've seen with Speedsters have been these cars.

Here is a nice real one.

What's a 'double tuck'?

Check out the dash on the red car in the Gallery section of this site under Speedsters. http://www.vintagespeedsterclubofamerica.com Notice the "hump" in the dash vs. the flat dash on the blue car. The "hump" is correct.
If you are looking at a replica Speedster I would go with Intermecchanica in Canada, or there is a good builder accross the pond. I think it starts with an S?

The motor is pure sin, a VW Type 1, ouch! I think it's funny that the guy does not mention it is a kit car and that the motor is VW in his ad. Did you notice he has another in the works, with A/C?!?

What is the world coming too...

you can easily tell it's a replica from a price tag of $19,900

...and he lists the car as a 1957.

Well if something looks too good to be true, then it usually is.....
