GT Spirit Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR AMG

FINALLY!! An accurate road going version of the CLK GTR! AUTOart had everything to do it but I never understood why they didn't try... :doh: :shame: Anyway, this car takes you straight to the 90s! It was must in Need Ford Speed. It was a spaceship, a Batmobile back in the days and still looks crazy ...

Re: DIE-ssecting of a Resin Model…

@Dave: I agree. Paying a fortune for a "limited" and expensive resin model was never my thing and it won't be anytime soon. To be honest, the industry in its current state disgusts me.

Re: DIE-ssecting of a Resin Model…

Not surprising indeed. Opening parts are nice added value but I prefer accurate exterior over opening parts. Of course, both would be perfect (Cayman GT4 by Schuco). To me, we had many upgrades lately thanks to resin manufacturers. One example amongst others is the R34 Z-Tune Z2. The AUTOart was a g...

Hotwheels Elite Aston Martin DB10 - James Bond "Spectre"

The DB10 might be one of the last Elite models coming from Hotwheels. Even if I don't really collect movie cars, I've been waiting for this DB10 since its presentation. I immediately fell in love with its styling. It's pure, classy and agressive at the same time. The design is out of this world in m...

Re: Post Your Latest DIECAST Purchase

This is what happens when you already own Autoart McLaren F1 and then spot another one on eBay 150 - 200 EUR below market price. I will be displaying one with shut and another one with open doors. https://v3bzww.dm2304.livefilestore.com/y4mbtmrk6bw7kCm6_-pLlar3vHtoeHfwVBrXTMHCGvsyiLJsyyhyZ45wYGyvo2...

Re: GT Spirit Porsche 911 (991) GT3 RS

Thanks, Dave!
Yes, slightly. I think the wheels are slightly too large.
I can't wait to see AUTOart's final product. Hope they fix the incorrect rear wheels on the prototype.

GT Spirit Porsche 911 (991) GT3 RS

You guys know how much I love blue 911s especially Riviera blue. You can imagine my reaction the day GT Spirit displayed a 991 GT3 RS in that particular colour...Perfect combo! I used to own 3 GT3 RSes from Spark (Lava orange, Ultraviolet and Birch green) and sold them. Mainly because I hate how peo...

AUTOart Porsche 911 (930) Turbo "Blackbird" Wangan Midnight

Special 911 here. If you like Wangan Midnight, you know how special this car is... Overall execution is on par with the old 930 Turbos. No significant upgrades here. Actually, we have downgrades. The engine and the tailights are poorly done. On the other hand, she looks EVIL. The stance is fantastic...

Re: 2017 International Toy Fair in Nuremberg - February 1 -

I hope Minichamps will be gone someday. This brand is a joke. Their lack of personality is disturbing.

GT Spirit BMW M4 (F82) M Performance

I finally have an M4 in my collection and a hot one! Back in 2014, I ordered 3 Paragon's but the dealer never called me back, I'm so glad they did not. Since the introduction of the M Performance package for the M4, I knew she was the one I needed. M stripes and some carbon bits always suit an M car...

Re: Minichamps Porsche 911 (991) GT3 + Riviera blue

Gavin: Indeed! I'd prefer the smaller front disc as the ones on the Turbo are too large. Autobahn: Your best bet is eBay. This seller has 3 and I think they will still have them after Christmas: http://www.ebay.fr/itm/NEW-1-18-Minichamps-diecast-Porsche-911-991-GT3-Open-close-car-model-Rivera-blue-/...

Re: Post Your Latest DIECAST Purchase

Never had that much modelcars at once. AUTOart's red Carrera GT is the 5th and my last one. It was one of my goal to have them all. A friend had the 5 colours and as a big Carrera GT fan, I said to myself that one day, they will be all mine. *tears* He inspired me and forever will. [url=https://flic...
