That colour is epic! Though LCD is the better option here.
i've seen the LCD version although i believe its the 600lt model if i'm not mistaken? i'm not a big fan of that one in particular, the rear and front just look like a squished and narrower version of the 650 and 675. but the LCD model IS diecast so thats definitely a plus! and the engine detail is better but the biggest highlight to me is the way they pull off their carbon fiber! MUCH better than what autoart has been putting out lately, although some of their models do have the glossy realistic carbon fiber decal.

After buying FIVE of these Minichamps 1/18 scale 991 GT2 RS models (because they were released days or weeks apart), I finally decided on the colors I will keep and sold the rest. The GT2 RS Weissach edition in "acid" green and the standard GT2 RS in Voodoo blue.

I just picked up the RS6, so unique. A very cool addition to anyone's collection, the story alone is priceless. As for the Avenue18 PB18 E-tron. Somewhat disappointed with it. Too expensive for what you get. Yes, I understand the rarity factor, but there are other brands, DNA Collectibles that consistently action 300 production runs with more detail and cheaper too. :scratchhead:

I like it tho. Okay the interior could be better! Also DNA... I don't like what they do with their windows.. Too thin and very fragile. 2 of 3 DNA's I got has issues with the windows :(

That is typical of many resin and sealed models in general. What Avenue18 did is totally outside the box.

Well even OttoMobile or GT Spirit (have like over 100 together) and not a single one with the same defect as DNA has.
That's just my opinion tho!

Thank you! Very happy with them. The 3 together cost the exact same amount as my last AA purchase (C7R). :scratchhead:
