Check these out--more lookalikes!
Check out this pair of lookalikes. It's been a while since I ran into such high quality lookalikes. It seems some Germans are very passionate about their DTM and STW. I wonder if there's any current generation (post '00) DTM lookalikes out there for the Audi/Opel/Mercedes???

STW Opel Vectra

DTM 155
http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?...562758779&rd=1

PS: I also saw WRC lookalike Impreza and rally Audi coupe today as well.

Perhaps the car looks more Class 2 than DTM. But you also have to consider these owners don't have tens of thousands to spend. They're doing this all on a reasonable budget.

How about, 'road cars with naff copy cat touring car paint jobs'?

To my recollection, on the road I've seen a Vectra in the RML Vauxhall Motorsport paint scheme (circa '96), and a 406 in the MSD Esso Ultron Green & Gold c1997 (yummy!).

A fad that makes your car look more interesting than everybody elses huh?

In my opinion (perhaps wrong) looks ugly. It has similar BMW colours but it´s far from being a good M3 E30, seems too "tuning car".

Well, they kinda lookalike, I never said they were exact replicas. Those replica or actual decal kits are super expensive and rare.

I wonder if there's a dealer part number attached to those Lancettis WTCC race decal kits.

Theres no actual dealer kit that i'm aware of although we have had a couple of decal kits, Chevrolet 'bow tie' and chevrolet wordings/website info etc, that were supplied when the lacetti sport (5dr hatch) to all dealerships when launched - side panels, bonnet, front and rear bumpers, windscreen and rear window.

The Lacetti replica is a Chevrolet owned car rented out to dealers/shows for static displays and has therefore been kitted out the same as the team race cars...

Way back i used to run a vectra SRi 2.5v6 which was tagged up with the yellow/white racing kit along with a variety of wheels/body kits - oh the joys of the motor trade!! there are also two replicas of the Chevrolet Lacetti WTCC cars doing the rounds at the moment, same skin - very different guts lol.....

I always see a 888 liveried Vauxhall Vectra in the paddock at Croft. I guess it must belong to one of the marshals.

either that or a standard car tagged up by/for the team. There were quite a few cars with body kits/decals at Silverstone for the WTCC and most of these were run by Chevrolet Retailers around the UK

It looks very close to the original. Even has a turbo XR4i engine like Rouse had in the racecar.

At least in Spain the roll cage can´t be homologated for street cars, but i don´t know if it´s the same in UK.

There is no V5 document, as there is no VIN plate or chassis number
