Replica or homage?
What do we think of these products? Do we lump them into the same category of watches as homage? There is nothing on this PGO Speedster II that says “Porsche 356 Speedster”, but there is no mistaking the origin of the design; or is that ‘inspiration’ for the design? Does it make a difference that the iconic Porsche is no longer available and the Speedster II may give you a modern taste of that historical vehicle? PGO describe these vehicles as “neo-retro styled”. What do you think of them?
[The Speedster II is made by PGO in France and has a mid-mounted 103kW, 2 litre Peugeot engine on a purpose built tubular chassis.]
an ugly homage...
should you look for an homage see beck (for 550) or intermecanica. or buy an original one you will be surprized by its "modernity"
I think................
...................it's a nice idea. A friend of mine bought a Speedster replica for about 30k €, and it was a VERY nice looking car, and technically better than the original.
The one in your pictures looks really ugly, to me.

APAL
Apal also used to make buggy's on the Beetle-chassis .. i remember having a lot of fun in this particular one ... it was pretty slow due to the standard Beetle engine, didn't really handle well, brakes were poor but oh so fun to drive if not too cold
note: I'm neither of the two misfits on this picture, i took the picture ...
The nice PGO

The last one is built on a Fiero-platform ... in my younger days i really liked the Fiero (i think) ... but have you ever seen something as ugly as this ? Makes you wonder about some people

A dream :-)
There's replicas and then there's dreams.

This Ferrari was a "recreation" and incredibly lovely
All Ferrari bits underneath the new skin though, not a Pontiac ...
