Latest News High Performance Diecast Koenigsegg Agera R

The latest news from High Performance Diecast in regards to their “extended” Koenigsegg Agera R project is more wait. The latest photos bring us one step closer to a scale model that has been in production for over two years. The latest example shown is still in early pre-production phase, though the results aren’t too shabby, however the carbon fiber weave is somewhat overly large. If they are going to compete with AUTOart, and suggest a $299US retail, end-user feedback must be taken seriously. Here’s a tune form Linkin Park, hopefully it fuels a fire for High Performance Diecast team. Good luck!

The carbon fibre size looks fine to me. No, it's not actually 1:18 of the real pattern, but that wouldn't look good anyway.

you're right the carbon weave does look too large. But when made to match the scale of the cars (1:18 in this case) they can look too small or not like carbon weave at all.. :roll:

And what's with that high steering column angle!? :? yikes! Overall the detail and finish of this model do look only quite average but if this is only a pre-production example then hopefully that will only improve for the release version.
