First pic of their upcoming 1:18 McLaren MP4-12C. I'm hoping it will look better than that (or at least have windows).

Pic courtesy of impression from DIF.

I'm eagerly awaiting the release. Still on the fence thought, AUTO art Minichamps. I'm leaning towards AUTOart due to Minichamps lukewarm effort on the Bugatti Veryon.

BTW this one out cam out to our VAGKRAFT Car Show today, sweet Jesus! :worthy:

plain body for you, racer for me? :okay:

Its hard to tell from Modelissimo's pics whether this is sealed or not. Other pics I've seen make it look sealed, which sucks (though for the right price, I'd still buy it)

It is sealed... Notice the perforated grilles? Nice touch, I'm still on the fence on this one.

I did notice those. Funny that this has perforated grills, but the more expensive & more detailed SL65BS does not.

I assuming back this one is sealed the SLS AMG isn't still a poor move on MInichamps part on both accounts :tut:
