A man with priorities so far out of wack doesn't deserve such a fine automobile.

Idiot. If he had left the Ferrari badges off, I would say "good job, well done", but trying to pretend that the car is a Ferrari is just going that one step too far. It's only an effective replica at first glance, anyway.

Or maybe I'm just being a car snob.

Still never gotten around to seeing that movie.

Love the film, and the article was good, but I'm mystified by spending $50,000 and 2500 hours on a Datsun trying to make it look (almost) like a Ferrari. Even an amateur like me can tell it's fake, without having to look at the details. The shape just isn't quite right, especially around the doors and side windows.

The film was inescapable for me. It's a wonderful Chicago movie, and the little love poems to everything from the Art Institute to the Hancock observation deck to the neighborhood parades (which are never in the Loop) are touching, especially if you miss the city like I do.

I've been on the street where the glass garage is (but it's hard to see). I parked in the Madison & Wells parking garage every weekday for most of a year. I've been in or by so many of the other locations.

Anyway, what matthewr said.
