CanAm was a small automotive company based in Minneapolis, Minnesota, founded in 1992. The company specialized in manufacturing replica cars, notably producing a replica of the Ferrari Testarossa.
The CanAm Testarossa replica was designed to fit on the chassis of popular American muscle cars, specifically the Pontiac Trans-Am and Chevrolet Camaro. This approach allowed enthusiasts to own a vehicle that resembled a high-performance sports car while utilizing more accessible and familiar American automotive platforms.
CanAm offered its replicas in both kit form and as fully assembled turnkey vehicles, catering to a range of customers from DIY builders to those seeking a ready-to-drive option. The company focused on providing an affordable alternative to the original Ferrari model, appealing to car enthusiasts interested in the aesthetics of the Testarossa without the associated costs.
