Must be shocking for someone who believes Ferrari's should be red, red, red or maybe red

Not a new addition, but another slight modification. The UT models Ferrari F355 is in my collection for around 25 years. It needed a proper refresh anyway as it developed some rash and it has been living a big part of its life on a shelve with no protection, so a disassembly in order to do a good clean was also no luxury. While being in bits, I decided to change the interior spec to beige on red carpets (is was boring black on black plastic). Also added seatbelts.

Lovely. Still holds up well today!!
Re: Marcel's 1/18 scale collection (Ferrari F355)
agreed. I had UT's Spider for a long time...only sold it because the Hot Wheels Elite was so good. Nice change on the seats.

Re: Marcel's 1/18 scale collection (Ferrari F355)
A model that came in a while ago is the Triple9 Alfa Romeo 164 Q4. Years ago I bought a Triple9 model (Lancia Delta) and it was the worst model I had ever seen. But after they announced the Alfa 164 Q4 I started doubting whether to add it or not. The 164 Q4 has a special place in my hart for some private reasons, so I needed one badly. Given the previous experience with Triple9 I had to see it in the flesh first, so time to go out for some shopping. To my surpise the model is very decent, Triple 9 has improved massively, so I bought one.
This model is ment to be modified into a replica of the very car that has a special place in my heart, but that is going to take some time. My 'to modify list' is pretty long and time is a thing at the moment. It will eventually get BBS wheels, an interior change and some other small changes.

Not bad for the brand!

Looks pretty decent...always really liked the 164. Interested to see it after your mods.

Another BBR pre-order came in last week, the Ferrari 812 Competizione in Azzurro La Plata.

No surprise there
Well maybe the next addition is more to your liking colour wise.
I have one problem with the newest arrival: Why the hell didn't I but this sooner!
It's an ACME Ferrari 512S 'Coda Lunga' from the movie 'Le Mans' form 1970. It is basically a re-release of the former GMP model. But what can I say, just look at the photo's. It is a lot of photo's, but I couldn't stop taking them. Ow and yes, I know there is no Ferrari badging on the model, and neither is Ferrari mentioned on the box. Probably something with licensing. I will add the badges later, it will be a simple fix.
Re: Marcel's 1/18 scale collection (Ferrari 512S Coda Lunga)
WOW! This is definitely on another level. Photos here do speak a million words. Excellent addition, and RED
Re: Marcel's 1/18 scale collection (Ferrari 512S Coda Lunga)
I don't think I realized this was ever released. I knew GMP/ACME had done the 512M. That looks absolutely incredible! Nice addition.

Thanks!
Next addition is also pretty good, the new released CMC Mercedes 300 SLR Uhlenhaut. It is my 6th CMC model and they never disappoint. Just perfection.
