When are replica cars okay? Is the Alibaba AE86 just SLOP? My thoughts as an original 86 owner

I love my old JDMs and there will always be a rusted away soft spot in my heart for a crusty Corolla. The Toyota AE86 is a great chassis, but existing examples are worn with decades of drifting and abuse. When the Chinese made Alibaba replica body was announced I had hopes that this could be a good for track-rats and driving enthusiasts, but now after the first example has landed in the US, I'm less sold than ever.If you like classic JDM cars, this is the automotive podcast for you!
