Yup..
5+ years ago Ferrari threatened to take the bodykit manufacture to court for using a Ferrari badge. Something like the badge only had 3 flairs in the tail instead of Ferraris 5 (or something like that). It didn't go to court I don't think, but the company stopped making the kits so only a few got made...
I used to see one on the A2, god i'd laugh. Honestly, its one thing making a 1.0 corsa a GSi look alike, but another league making a Toyota into a Ferrari Epically lame.
And yeah, recently an MR2 was in Italy in a garage. The Italian police found out that it was a fake (eventually....) so had it crushed as it was an insult.
I find that hysterical

So not only is it geeky enough to own a fake....
U'd want to make it even more lame by having a turbo whistling away..
I don't recall Ferrari making a 355 turbo from the factory, does anyone else?
Failz...

To be honest, anyone who actually believes it is a Ferrari won't have a clue what the whistling noise coming from it is. It just means that it might have the poke to go with the look.
