LOL, you've been after this one forever. GTS looks good too! What a sexy car

That's for sure! The prices on the GTS version were going up as well, so it was time to just pull the trigger. I see Spark versions for sale more often, but to be honest, the GTS looks just fine.

My LCD 600LT is here:

Congrats! How do you like it?

Wow, loving the 600LT

It's impressive. I especially like the way they did the interior. It's a good value. There's almost no detail overlooked.

My criticism would be the solid mesh around the taillights. I know it would be hard to do exactly to scale, but they put a very fine mesh over the engine. Why not around the taillights as well? I think it would have looked fine and would be more accurate than the solid piece they used.

I think it's too difficult to execute the rear mesh in scale.

Added a couple of dealer editions:

Mercedes-Benz AMG GT (C190) Black Series 2020 AMG, Magma Beam



Audi RS e-tron GT, Daytona Grey

Love both...great color on the AMG.

Wish they'd done better looking wheels on the Audi, though.

Not sure if there is an alternative wheel option. Nonetheless, I like the uniqueness factor of the model overall.

I think this is appropriate, seeing Gavin's yellow Corvette trio in the random pics thread. I present my newest addition, the AUTOart Callaway C12:

Lovely add. A very decent model from AUTOart

I have that same one...bought cheap locally off Craigslist. I had planned on selling it, but I ended up loving it. It photographs & displays VERY well.

I got the Fangzhou Arcfox GT, but the passenger seat came loose, as you see. I noticed someone (not sure whether it was the manufacturer or the seller) put little blocks of foam inside. In my opinion, this was completely unnecessary and may have created more risk of damage either by pressing against delicate parts of the interior or by having to be removed by the buyer.

Nice add! Yes, I don't understand the logic either. Are they trying to cover something up? That is the question I would as myself.

On the plus side, it let me get a closer look at the seat. It has some nice details and feels softer than the seats in some models.

Anyway, we have another newcomer, the Norev M1. I saw a used one on eBay at a cheap price, and bought it. The next morning, however, I was notified that the seller cancelled because it was damaged (I think). I was so peeved, I just bought a new one.
