This is a great model. I've modified mine with massive BBS rollers. Look great!

One of Norev's best models at the time (I think they've improved a lot since).

Picked up a 1/18 scale 991.2 GT2 RS in Voodoo Blue from Minichamps. Sadly, the box was damaged in shipping.

Great color & the gold wheels stand out nicely. How's the model? Sealed, right?

Yeah it is sealed, which seems to be the direction Minichamps is heading with their models. But, the model is really nice for the price if you can get it at retail otherwise they go for a bit too much on ebay due to the limited numbers of them.

I refuse to buy these sealed Porches from Minichamps, unacceptable in my opinion. Still waiting for many P{oraches in full open :fingercrossed:

I hear yah. I should resist but I don't mind sealed models from time to time. I believe Autoart will be making the 991 GT2 RS so if so I can always exchange the Minichamps for one.

Love that Orange...I have the grey one, which I like, but this color stands out a lot more.

So, I bought a Matchbox Motor Trend 1964 1/2 Mustang. Unfortunately, it appears some of the rubber bands that keep the paint around the hood from getting damaged are stuck to the body. This one will need some extra attention.

I love the black over red color combination. It has rubber tires, too.
