As one of the rarest Ferrari models of recent times with only 400 units built between 2002 and 2004, the Enzo is a prime candidate for makers of kit cars.
This eBay find is based on a 1992 Toyota MR2 NA, which is said to have been “professionally stretched and reinforced” to a 104-inch long wheelbase to bring its dimensions closer to the original Ferrari.
The replica has been three years in the making, and according to its current owner, it is “about 90 percent complete” and that “with a couple weeks of work you will have an amazing car”.
The pictures suggest that there’s work to be done on the exterior trim and even more so, in the interior.
If you must know, the highest bid on ebay at the time we posted this piece was $15,300.
Video walkarounds and a detailed list from the seller follow after the break.
