I think the body looks great however, the interior is not so hot. I went to ebay to look at the posted pics. I want a replica that looks great and a replica that most people would not question. However, with a cheap looking interior, it is a dead give away that the car is a replica. If you are going to build a car like this I think you should do it right!

Also, the car has no top and no windows. Well it says it does have an emergency top in cause you are caught in the rain, but without windows what difference does that make? Again, if you are going to build a replica do it right!

i 100% agree, sorta. i agree the interior is a joke, seats look nothing like lambos, the dash looks like a very very very rough representation of the real deal cept with out the percision. and the shifter is wrong, just the first few things that poped out at me... never did like that version of the murci anyway (front air dam too short, and too shallow, pitch of window is wrong, side intakes are too close to front wheels) but on the other hand it is a very very nice car, not a perfect replica but a great car, something i would have no qualms with driving. the pics on ebay do it better justice, esp the shot from the front, but from what iv seen of rarecars.org cars, well i wouldnt say 'cuts cornors' but what they attempt they do perfectly but what they skimp on to try and save money they do well too, but u can tell its not 'replicated' outside the car looks smashing, inside the murci, it looks sad, as is with their porsche, and with the diablo roadster (raodster is better then the rest but still if u look close at the guages, its not replica)just my opinion, but a damn nice car! last time i checked it was at $35,000 with 17 bids me personaly wouldnt pay over 40,000, but thats just me, also sucks about no top, and no windows but it comes with the territory thanks Matt '96 Jaguar XJ6(burgundy) '93 Dodge Stealth ES '83 Jaguar XJ6(hunter) '80 Mercedes-Benz 300CD '77 MG B soon to be mine 00-01 S2000 AUG-NOV(ok ok maybe not till jan) |

true i guess the winner can always add a better interior to it. it will just cost more money. but if you want just the shell and cant afford more than this is for you.

wow that murci roadster replica didnt even get a chance to end on ebay, someone paid direct to get it before anyone else can bid. they must have paid the guy alot to end that auction. i wonder how much will it cost to buy one direct from him and how long it will take to build it?

if i get it i will have to add about 45k for a entire interior. and change the rims as well plus add a new v8 engine , get rid of the old fiero engine which may have problems . but over all if you want a shell and dont want to spend much money then its ok. ts still a fun drive.
