Well I have been fortunate enough to drive a Modena 360 Ferrari and
500SL merc all be it for a very short distance lol.

But I think people mod cars just want to be individual and stand out
from the crowd. I should imagine it's also great fun and a good way
of learning about engineering and styling.
That's why I make slight alterations to my DeLorean, nothing
permenant, but just enough for people to think hmmmm that's a bit
different.
Each to their own
James
