A clone is typically turning a lesser car into an upper level car. A tribute car (in this context anyway) is usually a recreation in the same style of an iconic car or mimicking the style of a particular custom designer.

For example, turning a 1965 Tempest


into a GTO


would be considered cloning.

However, this 2010 Camaro


is considered to be a tribute to this classic racer:
