AUTOart Lexus LC500 - Metallic Red
AUTOart Lexus LC500 - Metallic Red
This is one of the best 1:18 scale examples from AUTOart in some time. Overall execution is clean and on point. The Metallic Red exterior works well with the lines of LC500. Fully opening and functional spoiler are some of the highlights. You can read the complete review by clicking the REVIEWS link on the website. Enjoy the pics!

I just received mine yesterday. It is truly stunning. Very light and delicate feeling, though.

I am on the fence with this one precisely because of the delicate nature of the plastic material. It looks very good but some of the panels gaps seems a bit large (doors and trunk mainly). Is it just the pictures ?

The paint colour is nice but how is the application? Is it any smoother than their diecast models? I'm seeing a bit of orange peel I think

Re: AUTOart Lexus LC500 - Metallic Red
Have no fear. Yes the model is light due to composite materials. Also the panel gaps are fine, photo lighting and lighter colour enhance them. Consider the darker Black.Atalante wrote:I am on the fence with this one precisely because of the delicate nature of the plastic material.

Thanks, I have a few AA composite series so I know the feeling. I just love this metallic red so will be red or nothing[KRAFTIG] wrote:Have no fear. Yes the model is light due to composite materials.
