It was Built by Vince Wright from the UK. He at that time worked as a Metal Fabricator in the Airplane factory there.
While at home on nights and weekends, He at around age 26 began to carve his very own version of this supercar. Not having access to a real Ferrari he just looked at the pictures and the specs that he could find and built his version the way he thought it should be.
Well (with no disrespect to Ferrari who thought of the original design. Thank you.) Vince made his car Lighter, Faster and much more affordable. No two panels on either the original or the Koenig version are the same as the Nemesis. If you look close you will see that even the body lines are different. The chassis, The Body, and nearly every piece of the car is designed by Vince. The yellow one powered by a V12 jag. The others are customers cars.
Now some years later still building a few Nemesis and a few Cobra replicas He recently went to India and Built an offroad buggy for the Desert Storm 2009 race in New Dehli. [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dqWDJ3T-9Ts[/url] The first buggy is his. It was designed and made in 30 days by Vince.
I just wanted to tell a little about this Man. because I was able to spend some time in Sri Lanka and help build the hardtop for his Cobra Replica. [url]http://img504.imageshack.us/img504/7686/hardtopp.jpg[/url]
