Please know your classics to determine who is copying who.
Uh, what are you talking about? The Vett arrived in 1953 and the particular version of the Vett (the second generation Vette, called the Sting Ray) that this car looks like started in 1963. Perhaps someone here does need a lesson on automobile classics . . .you.

Numerous people on the internet compare this Ferrari with the Vette C3 (1968). I am not referring to the Stingray in your picture.

I generally hate to compare any car with another, but this happens all over the internet. I always like to challenge those who compare specific styling and technical features to keep it chronological and come up with the oldest car they can find with such a specific feature.

I don't believe anyone claimed Ferrari was copying anything. Tractor only stated what this new car reminds him of.
