I wonder how long it will be until Ferrari sues them.
That is incredibly cool! It also makes me feel like an under achiever.
I think the best thing is how excited they are.....
Remember when we worked thru the night to get a car finished....
Look at the other videos , they made a Ducati on a Moped , a 2/3 scale super car and I am watching them do a Lambo ....
The same basic chassis design as well as a glass body was the Ferrari 308 GTB.
Actually, I can't remember when Ferrari went away from a tube framed chassis- it was within the last 40 years.

As soon as their lawyers see it. You can't make a copy of someone elses IP, and publish it on a platform to make money.
If they made a "supercar" that looks like a 488 great. Go nuts kids. Monetize that all you want.
But the word Ferrari appears on their Youtube Video more then 10 times between the title and description on a video that has 10M views and they have 750k subs.
They are using production of a replica to make money. And quite a bit as they are monetized and the internets say make >$5K/mo. It appears that that's what their whole site is actually. They make replica Lambo's, Ducati's etc. Most of them are fairly cartoonish in appearance and made out of wood/cardboard using bike parts it appears.
Ironically enough this video has more views then ANY video Ferrari have ever published. And they almost have more subscribers then Ferrarri. Ferrari's most popular video for the actual LaFerrari only has 8M views.
Also I am always impressed with these overseas builds how they just get custom windshields made. Like, I'm just going to popdown to the custom windshield factory and get a custom curved windshield made. I'm not sure if they aren't getting laminated glass or what but dang. Here custom windshields that aren't flat are crazy expensive.
Also to be clear I respect the hell out of the effort and work they are putting in. And it's always good to see people dream something and go do it.

They said the 488 windshield was from a Ford ranger ,
a couple custom car builders I know always built the car around the windshield and rear window ,
if I was going to build a "real" car to go at highway speeds I would buy the surrounding sheet metal around the glass off a wreck so you could fit the glass and rubber seal.later
In reply to alfadriver (Forum Supporter) :
Looks like the 348 was the first stamped steel chassis. Still had a lot of tubular steel in the rear subframe. That appears to have continued until the F355. The F360 was aluminum and a full spaceframe without the rear steel tube.
So looks like tubular chassis elemenents remained until the F360 in 1999.
Lambo though.. They seem to have held down the full tubular steel chassis fort until the Murcialago went out of production in 2010!
