So what is the deal with replicas? Is imcdb policy to file them originating from the country of the car they're copying? Or from where the copy design actually initiated? Is 'inspiration' what counts as origin? So a Pontiac-based Ferrari is originating from Italy? Or US?
I'm not sure we've ever had a formal decision on this. It's probably easier to have the origin as country of the original car because for many replicas we can spot it's a fake, but not who faked it or therefore its origin (random examples off the top of my bald head - Porsche 356, MG TF, Bugatti T35, Countachs, probably a few Ferraris, Miura wannabees etc).
