I have the black Elite 410...didn't realize it was based on a Columbus owner's car...kind of cool, as that's where I live.

Awesome model & props to Hot Wheels Elite for all the detail changes between the various models.

beautiful model. I saw a 1:1 when I was a kid at a local car show & the owner had the Bburago model sitting behind the shifter.

This is a model I wish Hot Wheels Elite had done as well. The CMC is way out of my price range & way more detailed than I need out of a model. I still have my old Bburago & I'll hold onto it, as it was my first 1:18 Ferrari (2nd or 3rd overall).

Love the California. CMC's version is stunning, but too expensive for my liking. Seeing your pics, Mattel have done an excellent job. Very nice model, indeed. I didn't realise Mattel's version was out!

Are you sure the Hot Wheels Elite's are LWB cars? They're marketed & boxed as SWB's.

this is one of Hot Wheels Elite's best models, In my opinion. I have the red one, which now is rather expensive, but the other colors can still be found pretty cheap.

I paid $81 shipped for my red one new...$120 seems like a pretty good deal, based on market prices. I doubt you'll find one cheaper.

It is an outstanding model, KRAFTIG. If you don't have to have red, the other colors look just as good, In my opinion & are CHEAP!

I need RED, all the others in my collection are red :) Ravi is a swell guy, he sold it to me for $80CND, not bad at all :)

Lucky13, I love your 1958 FERRARI 250 GT Spyder California SWB pictures. Would you be able to post the top of the car? Bird perspective but 90 degrees? There is not a single photo of that car from the sky perspective.... :( and I love it and I would like to see it :D

Thanks,
K

Looking good. Still haven't found one, Ravi's was a little less than mint for my liking...

It looks amazing. I had the chance (privilege maybe?) to see it in the flesh recently and even if I'm not really into 1:18s I fell in love with it. Has a touch of Autoart. It is the first time Hotwheels surprises me positively.
