any one know who built this car ???

I purchased a Lamborghini Gallardo (REPLICA) last year. Its built on a 2007 Saturn Sky Redline w/2.0 It has a Snow Menthanol injection, a large aftermarket Turbo,and I beleive a racing clutch. The interior is a Black/Tan leather w/5 speed transmission. According to a CarFax report it belong to someone in Oswego,IL : Gastonia,NC: and finally in Atoka,TN where it was wrecked. I am trying to finish the car but could use some help in knowing what all is here. I think she is putting out somewhere around 400 HP Please contact if you know who built it. Thanks, Captmike

Looked pretty good right up until he started it (a 4 cylinder in that body is glaringly wrong) and he put the finsih on it by doing doughnuts like some twat of a kid.

Oh well, at least it looks pretty nice given that the basis is a front engine car.

Did MadMods get rid of the one he purchased?

I thought madmods was from out west?

They made a few of these, but I pretty much hate them lol. the front end is an OK replica. the interior and back end... not so much

I'm not a fan of real Lambo's so that just looks like an abomination.

I love how he can barely get the cup holder open on the center console

miller11386 · 01-28-2012, 12:02 PM

I respectfully disagree

Elff · 01-28-2012, 12:12 PM

Sorry that does nothing for me.
I'd take a Ford GT AND a Nissan GTR over that and still have money leftover.

Not a big fan of these modern angular Lambos.

My fave (couldn't afford to buy one for $8,000 in the early 70s, now worth c. $200K....

My old Lambo doesn't look nearly as cool as the Miura, but it does use the same engine:

wow, someone would have to be a complete idiot to mistake that for a Lambo

I'm really sorry, but that replica is awful, just awful....

now THIS is a pretty legit replica:

Aw, come on guys, he asked for information not criticism. Some of the posts were probably helpful to some degree. I am sure you guys didn't mean any harm in displaying your preferences but I am also sure that he is serious in wanting information which will be helpful in finishing his project. Unfortunately, I can't help him but it seems as though some of you have far greater knowledge in this subject matter which could be quite helpful.

This how you take a good looking car, try to make it into another good looking car, and end up with something positively awful.

...and wait 20 mins for the hood and trunk to open.

Nothing wrong with kit cars. I just hope that the bodies of the sacrificed Kappas were trashed. If I were going that direction I'd go for a Shelby Cobra.

It might be helpful if he posted some pics of it. Inside and out.
