here is a super example of a Jet Black Glossy, mean and purposeful looking Alfa Romeo 8 C Competizione - 1:18 Scale Bburago.
Loved it and bought it.

And then comes the little 1:43 Maroon delicious looking little Corvette Stingray by Auto Art.

At this rate Im going to get beatings with a stick from the wife because while she indulges my scale model madness I shall need to go out and buy one more lovely glass fronted wardrobe to display the lot!

Lovely 8C and the Stingray is a real stinger:thumbs up

too lazy to unscrew the car from its mounting and picturize the rear bit. yes I agree its rear three quarter view is very attractive. beautiful car. I dont mind Bburago quality - better by a million miles compared with Maisto.
but auto art is really something - I say yet again.

The 8c sure does look nice. You did not post pictures of the rear which according to me is the best bit in the car.

never been a great fan of american cars with the exception of;
1. Corvette
2. Ford Mustang
3. Ford GT 40
4. AC Cobra
5. and of course the iconic Jeep.

will hope to slowly amass the american lovelies I dont have yet.

Yea. I believe so. I think It comes in this HArd Plastic Case.

Yes. It is an R/C model made by MJX. It's a Ferrari licensed product. I have an F50GT of the same 1:28 scale. good thing is that it comes without an antenna. The build quality of this thing is amazing as the car can take a few hard knocks and still look clean. The yellow hook at the front bumper and the side mirros are flexible.

@AutoFreak: What make is your 67 Mustang, the finish is really good.

@fzrider: Welcome to the collections forum.

@AutoFeak: Nice Pajero. I have a similar one from Autoart.

@Cyrus43: Love your rally Ford. How much does it cost? SL600 convertible, that's neat.

@shankar.balan: nice additions.

@planet_rocker: nice OTR there.

Here's a 1/24 Scale - Lexus RX300 from my collection

Thanks Siddvi!
the mustang is a Maisto!
yes the finish is good. That's why bought it immediately! :D

Just bought a 1:24 Race Tuner Toyota Celica, Porsche 356B, Alpine Renault, Abarth 500 and a Mazda MX5. All Bburagos and courtesy Cyrus. Thanks. Also ordered a set of 1:24 or 1:43 LR Series 1, II, III from Universal Hobbies.
Still couldnt find a Ford GT, Jag E-type, AM DB5 and Race Tuner Evo in 1:24. Please help.

Photos will come very soon.

I love the American muscle cars, all of them, it represents an era of sheer size & raw power. My most recent addition of muscle would be the good ole General Lee :D

Any idea where did he get it from, because I have seen 1:43 Ford GTs but they're too small and the detailing also lacks and ofcourse it wont look good among all 1:24s.

Autoart has a Veyron. You can find one on display at the ModelArt store in Forum Mall - Bangalore.

yes Autoart blr had a veyron - however as of yesterday it wasnt on display there. quite expensive as I remember - special edition model etc but priced at about 2grand + if Im not wrong. Nice packaging etc though.
