Copy = exact replica.

Unless the original card states otherwise.
i.e. {Phantasmal Image} or {Quicksilver Gargantuan}

As a copy, the clone copies all characteristics o the chosen creature. This includes name, color, power and toughness, abilities, and more.

...as they are written on the card. If you copy a {Rancor}Ed critter, your copy won't get the +2/0 trample bonus.

Thx BJ. Forgot to add that in. I assume it was implied but what the hell was I thinking. This is magic. Nothing is implied.
But yea... Exact copy of the card.

Yes, it doesnt specify that it targets the creature it copies, so yes. Same reason y if u clone a {phantasmal image}, the copied image wont die, because the cloning didnt target it when it copied it
