I made them check before shipping. It better arrive near perfect for what I paid!I surely hope the quality of this one is better than the Schuco BMW 850CSI I returned a couple of weeks ago...
Re: Post Your Latest DIECAST Purchase
It's not about the model itself but the built quality. The BMW was like Maisto 15 years ago. No carpet floors, glue residue behind the lights, the wheels were on 1 axle, the alloys were one plastic piece which could not be seen through. Very, very cheap to see but still 150 euros. It was a disgrace.

It looks absolutely horrific on photo's i've seen. Even on the photo's on the Schuco page, you can see glue residue everywhere. The rear looks seriously out of shape as well. Allready passed when I found out it's sealed, but this is shocking, really hope it's not the way Schuco is going in the future.

So true. The only positive point was the paintjob. The rest was absolutely rubbish.

Sometimes Amazon is a fluke. This car can easily sell for $200. The other color was $168 on Prime yet this color was $69.
