A God damn sports car!? What about a lightsabre or even a fucking anti-gravity hover board? No, this idiot savant makes an exact replica of a car that can't be driven. It's not even remote controlled!? Congrats jerk off!

You sir, appear from your neanderthal comments to be a talentless fuckwit.

Here's an idea - spend 12 years to build your replica Ferrari in full scale. Now all you've got is a fully functional lawn ornament. Models of sailing ships, I understand. The damn thing is useless.

I think perhaps a few of you are missing the point.
Am sure had he wanted to build a full scale replica he would have done so.
With an educated guess I would say that what he did was somewhat harder given the minuteness of the parts he had to make.
'Useless' as you say is relative here.
I would imagine the knowledge he gained throughout the design-phase alone would be priceless.

Fucking brilliant. It's his passion, who gives a shit what anyone else thinks about 'practicality'. The guy was born to design... he chose something he loved and worked the hell out of it from start to finish. I'm totally blown away

Awesome !
