Got this imported. I dont think the SLS has hit the Indian shores yet.. but its worth the wait if you don't want to import. Maisto has really improved their quality & it shows on the SLS.

The pic that i uploaded for the SLS shows a lot of lint on it, i forgot to clean it well guys, sorry .. will ensure that i shine the cars well before i upload.

Thanks all you guys for your comments - the Maserati is actually a gift (I could've never afforded the steep price !!), she occupies pride of place at the head of my collection.

@Cy: Yup man, 1:12s are too addictive, and liable to cause a serious dent in one's pocket

.
@Gautam: Long time no see buddy !
@Jessie: You Alfa is too good !
@Sagar: Ha ha, here we go, Fiatians looking for Fiat parts everywhere !!

@McLaren-good stuff, but you are lucky if you dont have QC issues with your Zonda. My first one had a broken door and the second one had a craked engine cover bracket.

Dear Patrons, friends & well-wishers,

October has been an action-packed month - we re-launched our website on hpage.com, at times working late into the night.

Some months ago, there was an offensive website created on webs.com, our earlier website host, and the resulting court order to block that site was wrongly interpreted - the entire IP address hosting hundreds of sites from India was blocked instead. Friends in India therefore could not access our website. We waited a few months for the website to be released but unfortunately it did not.

We were also not too happy with webs.com as they had introduced advertisements on their pages which reduced the viewing area considerably.

In our hunt for a new host, we came upon hpage.com providing better facilities and a larger viewing area. So we did not just re-launch the old pages here but revamped almost every page and added a lot more. Thanks to valuable suggestions from our new friend Mr. Amar Paithankar from Pune, our website also has a whole new dimension.

Please do visit the new Autofest City website : www.autofestcityindia.hpage.com And please send us feedback.

This month we conclude introductions to our new entrants from Kevin's Hobbies, Canada. Here's our newsletter: http://[URL="http://www.box.net/shared/q1uga8kp76"]www.box.net/shared/q1uga8kp76[/url]

We wish all our friends a very happy and safe Deepavali!

Best regards,
