You must find it incredibly hard to answer my questions seeing how you ignore almost all of them. But go ahead and answer something else no one has asked. Then when you're finished, call me another name in an attempt to prove your wit and maturity.

12 pages and madcurl has said in maybe 50 different ways.. that it's slapping the big $$$$$$$$$$$ cars badging.. is what bothers him..
not the kit car itself..
it's not any different than the muscle car guys that cry when someone makes a clone shelby mustang, a ls6 chevelle, hemi cuda..
if you build the kit because you like the look .. thats fine... and hell I'd love a lambo..
but when you add badges... that if you admit it or not.. is to get laid.. way to many show up at shows with the whole fake rich single man outfit.. not just the car..
kit cars are kool.. they don't need the badges.. to be kool..
I take a kit car for what it is.. a self built car.. and the ones I love is where the owner changed things to make it different..
to make it his own.. yes they are bought because the buyer wants a car they can't afford.. nothing wrong with that...
it's when they go out and use the car as part of the rich single guy/gal to get somewhere.. I find a problem with..
I will build a daytona FFR at somepoint... but it will not have a shelby badge anywhere.. nor will it be ford powered.. may not even be v8 powered... OMG....lol
not sticking up for madcurl. he can do that fine for himself..
but let your car stand on it's own.. not a 10 buck badge..

With all due respect, that's an over-simplification of the hatred he's posted.

That's a rather broad generalization. Teenage boys might believe this but I'm guessing anyone that can afford to build a replica isn't that naive. Besides, everyone will notice the Lambourghini or Daytona FFR driving past whether it's got a badge or not. If you're going to build a replica that everyone immediately recognizes either as a Lambourghini, a replica of a Lambourghini, or an attempt to look like one, adding a badge is hardly breaking any new rules, or any rules for that matter.

I've met many more humble kit car and replica owners than I ever have that are even a quarter as egotistical as Madcurl. The proof that the badge has nothing to do with it can be found by reading Madcurl's posts in the Choptop Chronicles. If you're looking for easier reading, just scan a few pages back because I'm sure I've quoted many of the best ones.

think you need to get out more.. and maybe as a night club that some people use the car as part of the whole rich look.. as they throw the keys to the lot jocky..
again. not everyone..
I'm kinda shocked that these big name cars haven't stopped the sale of the badgings..

Yea there are a lot of them out there. Looking for one needing a motor,body work. Taking a real Ferrari and making a 288 GTO clone would be an awsome car.

Is it necessary to be so crude? Try using better language.

Yes. I made one comment on 12 Dec 2011 and deleted it the same day. I answered cornersonrails question asking "What's up with all the hate", to which I replied with a link to this thread. Go ahead. Ask him. Edit to add: The reason both of us deleted our posts was out of respect for your thread at the time. Thank you for acknowledging your ignorance.

 Sometimes even a replica owner will try and "fake" the truth, but all you have to do is look. Seriously, go some where and take Gas-X pills.[This message has been edited by madcurl (edited 10-25-2012).]
