No, but I'm sure someone is working on one right now...

No, you can buy a Mitsubishi Evo / parts for nothing.

Yes, but I haven't seen a completed one yet.

No, it's not cost effective to make a replica of a production car; rebodies run $10K, complete kits (chassis/body) run $20K...if you can buy the real thing for prices that are close or comparable to those, then you'll never see a replica of the production car. Case in point: DeLorean (never see it; you can buy a real one in the teens).

Your pal,
Meat.

Japanese performance cars are not normally replicated because the real things are so cheap and execessable. The Evo is just a lancer with a body kit. Try here

As for the Mclaren, it's been the unicorn of the kit car industry, but it will happen.
As for the Supra, you could pick one up for about AUD$30 000

Hope this helps

Your mate in OZ
