Custom Flat-12: 1971 STP Porsche 917/10 Can Am Car Replica

Have you ever wanted to build a flat-12 engine by bolting two standard production flat-6s together into one Frankenstein's monster-12?  Yeah...me too! Been on my bucket list for a while, right behind building a street legal Tyrell P34 six wheeler replica...but someone actually got his two subaru EZ30 flat-6s and bolted them together to make one giant flat-6 contraption. Naturally, something called "physics" got in the way and terrible vibration caused the home-brewed contraption to vibrate like a neutron star going supernova, but the seller assures us that a simple rubber guibo isolator will fix the problem...just up to you to find and install one.  Anyway, find this 1971 STP Porsche 917/10 Can Am Car Replica here on eBay bidding for $7099 reserve-not-met with 4 days to go, located in East Hartford, CT.

DTO: Red Head: 1987 Ferrari Testarossa

Welcome to another edition of Daily Turismo Omologato (DTO) where we showcase cars that are above the standard DT price range, but are unique and worthy of a feature. Don't worry, the Daily Turismo hasn't been sold to a foreign investment group hell-bent on turning DT into a profit machine for overpriced listings of overpriced cars...but every once in a while we feel the need to feature something a bit more exclusive, perhaps as an option for the a reader of this site who has a good paying gov't job and mostly we are featuring the car now to taunt him while he is being furloughed (sorry about that Bob).  Anyway, the Ferrari Testarossa was an extremely expensive mid-engine supercar from the 80s, an iconic fatass featured on every 10 year old boy's bedroom wall and starring in everything from Miami Vice to Sega's Outrun.  Find this 1987 Ferrari Testarossa for sale in Anaheim, CA for $49,975 via hemmings.com
