100% agree, it all depends on who is asking and how they do it. After all most people asking would never know the difference other than the material the body is made of.
So many of us that spent countless hours studying these cars to get things right then all the hours fussing with every single part and piece of his car has a very strong connection. For me partly because of my age I guess have gotten beyond worrying about the inevitable question "is it real".
When asked if the person is genuinely interested love to tell all about the car otherwise it is short and sweet have nothing to hide and very proud of my creation. It is certainly real to me replica or otherwise.
Without a kit available would probably never realize my dream of owning one of these incredible machines so my thanks to all who manufacture them.
