"Ferrari executives ... had never heard of the Spanish car mechanic and didn't know until recently what he was up to... Ferrari alerted Spanish police, who raided ... and shut him down in July, seizing 17 replica Ferraris and two replica Aston Martins."
... sounds like a measured response. Kind of like suing a person for tens of thousands of dollars for downloading a few MP3s.

- SDGT 13y agoI don't know of a single prospective Ferrari buyer that would even give the thought of buying a Toyota kit car instead a microsecond of time. They are totally different demographics, in fact I'd say there a high chance of a real Ferrari owner to purchase one of these as a novelty. People that buy a Ferrari are in it only for the pedigree, otherwise they'd actually buy a good supercar like a Noble or McClaren.
