Love them both Gavin. The Singer is quite impressive, eh?

thanks, gents. Really happy with both.

I had the purple/black 30th anniversary car here for a couple days & snapped some pics (thanks, KRAFTIG!). Cool unusual color, but silver shows off the lines really nicely.

The Singer is outstanding. Love the interior. Only complaint is the windows & trim around them...with other Porsches, its black & hides well....chrome on the Singer & doesn't look as good. Fantastic model other than that small bit.

It's the highland green. I have the matching 04 to go with it.
awesome...both have to be that green. Do you have the '68 to complete the set? Hoping Ford will make a Bullitt in the current gen at some point.

No I don,t have the 68 bullitt, just the GT and GT500.... Hopefully find one at a decent price.

Mine came today also! When I ordered the Singer I wasn't sure about the color. So much better in person, love this model.

The color on the Singer is much more impressive in person.

Good choice on the 964...I have the Welly, but was very tempted by that one. Would love to get GTS' Turbo S at some point.

These are from a local auction a few weeks ago. A corvette enthusiast estate sale. They were selling in groups of 5, so you wanted one, you took all. Still ended up only costing around $10 each. Never been so lucky. UT 78 vettes, black, red and yellow. UT C4 vettes, all pace and safety cars and a conv, Autoart C5-R GT2 #4 and a few I already have but I had to take with the others.

And this was probably the best deal. The full Zora Arkus-Dontov 1:32 corvette collection with display. I don't collect this size but couldn't pass it up.

agreed...nicely done!

Love UT's C3 Vette. That AA C5R is fantastic as well...always liked the silver ones.

Very nice!

I had the Jag, but it fell apart everytime I touched it.
