Re: Which GT40 Replica is most like the Ford GT?

I think the replica most like the new Ford GT is actually the DRB, not because it doesn't look like an original, it's just that many DRB owners have 'modernised' the cars to look less like their 60's brethren and more like their 00's cousins. There are the DRB's with the high wing mirrors, centre shift, modern seats/wheels, one car with Ford GT like headlights etc. No other replica has shown such a diverse amount of 'modern' customisation which is no bad thing - I think it sets the DRB apart as been a very versatile replica capable of filling many roles (and hence many garages...)

p.s. there are also very many DRB's that are spittin' image replicas of 60's cars, so please no offense...
