I like it very much! Very good build quality. Except the rear hatch.. its not 100% closing. Their is a little gap. But other than that.. it is a very nice model car with very good detail and panel gaps.

Love the J50! I was very tempted to get the BBR but too expensive. Let's see if I can catch one cheap on wait to see if the Looksmart is worth the wait.

Thanks! Yes, the J50 is looking so great. BBR did a very good job with the details of the car and also with the darker red paint color that my version has.

The price was very steep, that's true, but I wanted that thing so badly, and for me, it's worth it.

Good luck @David on your hunt for a J50!

Thanks! Enjoy yours!
Dave published pictures of Looksmart's take on the J50. Let's hope they come cheaper. I'm desperate!

I must say, I quite surprise with Norev's classic 911s. They just look great. I'm quite tempted to buy the 911E Targa
Not perfect for sure but shape wise, this Norev kills the AUTOart!

According to online pictures, these 911s sit a little bit high. Perhaps you could lower them a little bit, I'm pretty sure it would greatly improve the overall look.

Pre-ordered a special 991. The 50th Anniversary, exclusive to Selection RS. I've been waiting for this one to come and it's finally here!

Yeah, David, the 911 sits a bit high. Seems all Norevs are a bit too high but I've lowered many of them before and will do the same for this one. Otherwise I am very pleased with it. Nice 50th Anniversary 991!

At least they did better on the tire size. :)
