Not sure if is was or not. It does look great! I'm missing so many modern Porsches in hopes AUTOart would execute them. I might have to start collecting some of the budget-friendly stuff. More than solid placeholders for sure!
Definitely, there are excellent place holders out there, best get them before even those ones get expensive. I'm working on re-collecting some Porsche Turbo models and I'm shocked at how expensive even some Norev or GT Spirit models can be long after they stopped making them.

Picked up a 1/18 Porsche 911 Turbo 3.3 (964) from GT Spirit. It’s a nice color, called Amazon Green, and I really like the 3.3 version of the 964 Turbo even though it is overshadowed by the 3.6 version. Honestly, though, sometimes I just like to collect unique colored 911s. :crazy:

Amazon Green is a great color & that's a great looking model.

I got this gorgeous Amethyst purple 964 Turbo S Leichtbau (1/18 scale from GT Spirit), a model I owned previously and sold. This is probably the coolest and most extreme road version of the 911 Turbo ever in one of Porsche’s most unique factory colors, happy to have it back in my collection.

Minichamps BMW M3/M4

It has been a ALONG TIME since I bought anything from Minchamps. I only collect M series cars, so these are welcomed additions!

Nice M3 and M4! I love those colors. I love Minchamps, even if they might be hit or miss lately.
