That looks really nice, especially the motor. Your honest thoughts?

The model is really well made by Autoart, the old well loved Signature series. Frankly i was not into GT1, had seen it with couple of my collector friends at that time i had not planned to add it.

Recently when i saw the video at ROMSMODELCARS in youtube, and Autoart announcing the R390 again made me think to get this to accompany my UT 911 GT1.

PROS:
The model is really detailed with the intricate parts well replicated, including the suspension and the interiors.
The doors open wide and well we can have a good look at the interiors of the model, which is nicely detailed.
Engine details is fantastic, anyone who loves to see the details on the model cars will always be jaw dropped to see so many intricate parts replicated well.

CONS:
Not many, but i can see lots of screws in the engine compartment, which i don't complaint still.

Master modders can do improve on this by replacing the plastic pipes/hoses with proper braided wires to make it even more realistic.

As a collector for me, this Signature model does stands out in terms of details it has and reminds the old Autoart which was a goto in collecting detailed model cars. Very happy with this model in my collection.

Cheers!!! :popcorn:
