I watched a youtube video a few months ago with a guy in Japan at a model/hobby expo, and there was a 1:1 static model of a Nissan I think. Pretty awesome!

Edit: Found the video...about 2 minutes in:

I thought the same thing. They probably went with a Cobra due to the small size.

Also, the story is sensationalized by implying they printed the car when they didn't. They printed some components of the car. Still impressive though and shows a glimpse into the future of manufacturing.
