[QUOTE=zeebo;5129817]i agree 100%. i cant stand the terms "clone, tribute, replica, dedication" types for these cars..it has cheapened the hobby and fooled many folks into buying a car that is misrepresented--especially when you cannot get PHS documents for. i think really it all comes down to $--people do it that cant afford a real one (not that i agree with the inflated prices of real ones) and clone their cars so they can command big money when it comes time to sell it. id rather have a ratty real GTO or SS chevelle than a mint clone. id be embarassed and have no street cred with my car buddies if i had a clone.[/QUO

So are all the people driving they're AC Cobra clones or 32 Ford clones,replicas,tributes embarassed and worried about street cred?I don't think so.I don't think it cheapens the hobby one bit.There is room in the car hobby for the purist and the hobbiest that like to make there car perform and look the way the want.If someone is going to spend big bucks on a car purchase do your homework.
