Nice! One thing I know is Biante is top notch when it comes to execution. The CC isn't too shabby either!

I am so glad that I have put a personal limit on these to no older than 2000.

Thanks for the great pictures!

AutoArt makes most models for Biante. But this model is actually Biante's own creation.
It is top notch in terms of details.
Carlectables not shabby at all! Look at those hinges or undercarriage at least. The Falcon is stuffed with details.

Cause quit buying supercars and get yourself at least one Aussie racer! ;)

I see you buy one AutoArt Huayra every month LOL. You should add at least couple of Aussie racers. They are awesome.

I would, but all this other crap keeps coming up. I found this one canadian retailer that specializes in CC models so I'll check them out for sure.

I've bought through the via eBay and directly, and they are great. Only bad thing is that I have one of everything from CC that they have in stock, so nothing else they have is of interest.

I would not hesitate to order from them again.

Yep linpin. Good to know you've had good experiences. How often do they bring out new stock?

To my knowledge, their CC offerings have have become quite stagnant, it appears they haven't imported any of the more contemporary Oz models. That's why I commented that I don't do much business with them these days.

I think Linpin will not sell CC models anymore so the models are available as the stock lasts.

Well that's a shame. There are only two models from them that I'm interested in, so I was hoping they'd have more stuff coming.
