I don't know... they were just trying to make a buck and, after all, these cars pretty much all look the same anyway, and a picture's just a picture, and most of can't tell the difference between aluminum and plastic without a magnet anyway (a magnet does work for that, doesn't it?). So, I say we welcome Alloycars in to the fold and just let bygones be bygones. After all, it's almost Christmas Eve. Where's that Holiday spirit?
