Gaah! My wallet is now $278 lighter. Fingers crossed that this retailer won't tell me that they are out of stock.

I heard through the grapevine that less than 50 made it to North America. Good luck to you!

Thanks! This retailer (Bcreplicas) managed to get 6, which sold within an hour.

According to a friend of mine, 600 of the WRE editions were allocated for Asia. Another 60 were destined for Austrialia, leaving the Americas, Europe, the Middle East, etc. with 340.

Mclaren MP4-12C GT3 by Spark (1:43)
Produced by Spark only for the Mclaren dealer in Brussels (Belgium)

It's the first Mclaren GT3 produced by Spark and it looks stunning!
Very happy with this model!

I received my Citroen DS3 WRC from Spark yesterday as well and their quality is amazing. I believe they're all resin models.

So what is the difference between the WRC and the carbon with orange effects/wheels? Obviously production, yes, but the cars themselves look about 99% the same.

1% difference being the COA being worth 5x as much haha

So what sets the World Record car apart from the base model other than a definite price premium? The WR car interior will feature an orange 4-point racing harness, fitted license as per the 1:1 WR car, black front Bugatti badge, and white rear taillights. I know this one will be on my priority list come this winter.
Basically the above sums it.... I have mad respect for this car. I'm trying to source the WRC, yes the exclusivity of the model is a bonus too :okay:
