Agreed.
I think clones are lame, but hey... there's all sorts of reasons why they do it good and bad. Many I do not understand.

Some people make tribute cars to an old 442 they wrecked years back.
Some do it to ''look cool'' or seek approval from "regular" car drivers.
Some people have found so many 442 parts laying around, they figured they might as well build one (close enough)
and then again..... some people just want to make money screwing others over.
