Now, let’s talk awards. The suspense was real, the excitement was palpable, and after a heart-pounding 30 days of voting that drew in a staggering 3317 votes, we have a winner! The top five contenders battled it out, capturing a whopping 37% of the votes collectively. And if you thought you’d seen it all, brace yourself because this year’s contest was the closest we’ve ever witnessed, with a mere three votes separating first from second place. Three votes! It’s a tight race that leaves you saying, “Wow,” with a knowing nod.
Drumroll, please! The moment we’ve all been waiting for – the DiecastSociety.com 2023 Model of the Year goes to the exceptional LCD Model Pagani Barchetta! Let the applause and cheers fill the room because this win is well-deserved. It’s not just about its uniqueness, but the overall aesthetic charm, and the fully opening piece that adds that extra touch of magic, like uncovering a hidden treasure. A node to budget-friendly brand Norev for keeping pace with their Porsche 911 entry against Almost Real and CMC.
A massive thank you to the dedicated team and everyone involved in making this happen. We extend our gratitude to the brands and sponsors who continue to support our shared passion. And, of course, a heartfelt thank you to all of you – the thousands of individuals like you who share in the enthusiasm for this fantastic hobby!
