I'm pretty sure the grey one isn't available yet - only the white one, but I may be wrong[KRAFTIG] wrote:Not sure which one they are sending though, hoping for the above colour

Pre-ordered these from GTS:
I'm still undecided on this one. I'm not really a Porsche guy, but there is something about it!

Forgot to add that I got this yesterday. A bargain at £56 from CK!
Re: Post Your Latest DIECAST Purchase
Got this on the way:
Had the silver Engup Ford GT (number 1 of 100!!!!) and Topspeed Acura NSX delivered yesterday from Carloverdiecast. However, both are going back due to the Ford being screwed down too tight to the base and 2 of the wheels warping and basically disintegrating and the NSX box is too badly damaged for my liking - all my models and boxes are in pretty much mint condition, so not gonna compromise now! A shame really, coz both models are really nice.

Nice additions nonetheless. I want to the P85, just can't spend the coin right now. How was the TopSpeed piece? I should be doing a review on the McLaren 675 soon. I definitely waiting for AUTOart's version of the Mercedes SUV, do want the added detail.

Just got an Auto Art Lime Green Huracan........I like it a lot. First impressions of the composite models are positive. Yes the hood and engine bay lids feel very fragile BUT all in all its a damn nice model

Re: Post Your Latest DIECAST Purchase
Yes the silver works well with red and I like that the seats are rubber and not plastic. Will be detailing the engine though, plus getting rid of that horrible grille

I'm just gonna remove the chrome off this one and paint it a more subtle colour. If that doesnt work, I have a photo etched one coming.

Re: Post Your Latest DIECAST Purchase
But I will try modifying the existing grille first cause the tremonia one will be very one dimensional. The Hot Wheels Elite grille has the proper depth. BUT it seems to be set too far forward. It needs to be a tad recessed.
