Not diecast, but I picked up a plush version of the Renault Twingo.

do you get to display your non-BMWs at work?
matte white by MR would be more sought-after me thinks...although I can't comment on the quality
the aperta...just no
then you can argue matte white isn't a factory colour. Is the 1:1 CF from factory? or custom

For sure the full CF. The Aperta, imo, like twitchyzero mentioned above, just no...
Resale value wise, it'll be high, but not locally imo. You would have to sell it on ebay if u do decide to resell later.

resale is more of an after thought.... lol who knows... I thought about letting go of my black Zonda R.. but I couldn't let any of them go... fail fail fail
I always tell my wife that haha... lolol... "if I cheap out... they lose value... if you buy higher end, they retain value? lol"

Yeah that one is nice. I see a ton of those in my search. I'd like a road going one though. I'd be willing to do a 1:12 scale one if I could find a really good qualty/detailed one. On that note; are hotwheels models decent quality? On par with Autoart and Kyosho etc.?

hotwheels elite series is the one to go for if you want better quality. not autoart levels of build quality, but dosen't have kyosho paint issues.

which is why i said have/had up top. even though they are discontinued you can still find them new for sale if you shop around, but they won't be cheap. eg: http://www.modenamotors.ca/diecastca...-elite-edition
