I just hope it shows up in one piece and relatively flaw free, Ottos a big hit and miss with their QC.
Hope so. 4 of the rally cars I got above are Ottos (my first from the brand) and each has some sort of flaw, like poorly fit windows, one had a missing exhaust tip while another had a missing license plate. Not terrible flaws. Better than GT Spirit if you ask me, especially when it comes to paint, the GTS models have been so bad lately!
Unfortunately that has been a theme of late with these brands. I'm sure going to limit my adds to the upmost wants.

I have the same big GTI. It's older GTS, so much better build quality back then.

Fingers crossed..... i have been pretty lucky with Gts lately with QC cant complain but the price hike will have me being very selective in the future. Maybe none at all.

love it! The quality is what I expected from Autoart - amazing! I am really hoping for a 1998 version from them. No way am I spending the silly money that Top Marques is asking lol

Finally found a silver AA McLaren F1 here on this site :-) Can't wait to get it! :okay:

Going to pull the trigger on the AA McLaren P1 in Volcano Yellow or the new release Volcano Orange this weekend. I just can't decide which to go with! I was originally waiting for Volcano Orange but I'm not sure I like how the CF ar spoiler breaks up the look. :geek:

TM aks a premium for their sealed works. There one goal is to get the overal lines correct. I cancelled my order for the Jaguar XJ220 because of the exterior misses. $250CND, sorry i’ll pass.

That is an awesome colour combo for sure. But why not the CMC version?

Slate grey is my favourite Porsche colour, especially on the older 911's so its a must have, but i do plan on getting the irish green cmc 901 to go with a spark millionth 991
