I really like that Alfa! But I just can't justify that price for resin models, I just can't do it. Putting my hopes on OttoMobile in this case.

I hear you. I don't think the mainstream will do this that is why I went for it, fits my collection well. If there was a possible alternative, OttOmobile or GT Spirit maybe. :fingercrossed:

OttOmobile did the Giulia quadrifoglio, so I wouldn't be surprised if they announced the GTAm. But that is based on hopes :fingercrossed: rather than knowledge :deal:

Nice add. I'm just editing the final proof of the Nissan Skyline RS Turbo Super Silhouette 1982 review. Absolutely amazed how good this model is, I wonder which of these two are better.

I would say pretty close damn close although alot more engine detail to look at in the r390 so the r390 in my books i still think autoarts finishes were better on their older releases. (Eg this r390 has the cloth seat belts the newer long tail r390 calsonic car has rubber belts and their molded carbon fibre drives me nuts) as we all know autoart has sure cheapened out over the last few years.

Funny, the Nissan Skyline RS Turbo Super Silhouette has fabric, which is mentioned in the review. :scratchhead:
