Thanks, It was $400 well spent. Probably go as far as saying it's one of the best 1:18 produced.StratosWRC wrote:Nice. I have the baby blue racer, but I really want one of these as well

I have to say, the red on that one-77 is VERY nice.

Re: Post Your Latest DIECAST Purchase
Recieved this bad boy today. BBurago Signature 488GTB. The grey ones sold out very fast in Europe so I had to get this one from the US. Which meant I paid more in postage than what the actual model cost. EU guys like me get spoilt with cheap shipping and no custom-fees.
Have to say I´m super impressed with this model. I had my doubts when BBurago got the Ferrari licence, but the evolution of their signature models is phenomenal. Compared to the "first" signature, the California T. This is SO much better.
I think they appear to be really ambitious and bar some minor errors, the quality and overall apperance is not far off most Kyosho or dare I say some Autoart models. It´s so little that has to be improved to get them to that level.
On this model I would have liked to see a better solution for the front splitter to eliminate that nasty gap now present.
If they´d been a bit smarter it could have been avoided in the construction process.
The front wheels have the wrong offset and too weak suspension which makes the camber too aggressive. The 1:1 has almost no camber in the front and very little offset. Obiously they cut costs by using the same mold for the rear and front wheels but they are very different on the 1:1.
It could also be a bit lower in the back, but that is easy to fix. I lowered mine immedeately.
All in all,I love it. Will probaly get the BBR aswell, but that´s just because I´m a Ferrari guy. This is great for the casual collector.
