Thanks, i noticed that, but i would prefer the af corse evrsion, and more so the 2017 livery so i 'll probably wait for thr next batch...

 

My latest aquisition...and probably the most beautifull model i own!

Thanks Peter.
I fully agree with you on the price, it's absurd....but when i saw the first images of the model i was hooked, and since i decided to sell almost all of my street cars to focus only on race cars, i was able to trade this one with the seller for 2 Elites and a Kyosho, and i've also done the same (more 3 elites) over a filipineti 275 gtb..wich i still haven't received. These cars go for more than 400€, i'm getting them for about 310, still a lot of money but since it was a trade, didn't bother me that much, and i must say that a couple of thsese ones make a lot more impression than a bunch of Elites.

 

Thanks Marshal, I'm also sure you'll find your favourite colour...they will surely make plenty diferent options, they already have with or without closed headlights...i confesse that for a road model i prefer the first, but as a race version, to me at least this was the version to have. It's a very delicate model but even my wife that doesn't care much for cars or models agreed it was stuning! Funny thing is, she does like the older ones, from the 50s and 60s but not so much for modern cars . Now i'm anxious to see the tecnomodel 512, if it's good enough i might buy it and skip the gmp, since that one will probably cost double the price!

 

Yes

 

That's my opinion too Tom, their 1/43 models looked much better...but they do things no one else does, or in some cases (like the 750 monza) do for a lot more money (like MG model) and with similar if not better quality!

 

Anyone has pictures of the driver's seat inside a 512m sunoco? Is it red or black?..i would say black but could be wrong, need a picture of it...

 

Yap, definitly looks black with blue seatbelts...both gmp and tecnomodel seem to have this wrong, picking red seats!!
Thank you for teh pictures

 

Yes, it's a shame they just don't care and don't even put an efford to get things right...but they still charge a bundle of money for the models!!

 

carmodel just released pics from the 512m from tecno....for now only the plain red version...looks a bit cheap to me, i'll wait for the sunoco pics...but a bit disapointed so far...i was hoping to get this one and save some money..but not sure if i should wait for rhe GMP...

 

Very disapointed, the rear wing looks like a bit of plastic, horrible!...i'm definitly star saving for the GMP, if it's any were near the other Ferraris they released it will be 100 times better than this!!
