CMC is making a 250 GTO
pre-order is $600 all in from Toronto Motorsports 
anyone own their models from recent years? from reading around people are saying their work is getting sloppier |

They actually don't have the Ferrari license anymore, so they are using some kind of copyright loophole to produce the 250... They've had some criticism of their frames lately. You can read more here: REVIEW: CMC Ferrari 250 GTO - Silver - Diecastsociety.com |

GT spirit has a very dark gray if that interests you... But don't know of any black ones besides the old UT models: Porsche 911 (993) Turbo - GT Spirit |

They are quite different when I saw them in person. I like the rims proportion on the tarmac one but I like the white spoon one from onemodel better. But just like video games. No one can really replicate the eg6 shape perfectly. Like even the new 1/43 spoon eg6 looks bad compared to the hpiracing one.

these were something like 38,000jpy back in the day, not 100% sure. there is one one yahoo japan auction right now for 45,000jpy and climbing. a championship white one sold for 120,000jpy... that's a little too mega imo
but i'm okay with black... because mia toretto drove one in the movie  :
