If you think about it, Lambos' (real) and Lambos' (fake) cater to 2 completely different types of people. On the one hand, the guy that can afford the real one would HATE to drive a replica. The guy with the replica in mind would never spend the big dollars to get a real one - why would he when he can build one for 1/5th the price. Kind of like the guys buying Ford GT's instead of GT40 replicas.

The reality is there are more Lambos on the road, real or replica, and they make Lamborghini look good - unless the replica is of a low standard, which makes them look bad. By all accounts, these copies were high quality.
