The exhaust and tail lights look to be from a 360 or 512. It's definitly a kit car thougth. You can tell by the really crappy mesh cut outs around the exhaust. No high end sports car company would have that poor quality bits on the outside. Looks cheap, but I would still be curious to know what it's packing.

Ok, it seems it is the Sbarro Christelle, based on a Mondial:

SO it was a Ferrari rear end after all

Not bad for a "Vette lover" - huh?
