Picked up the AutoArt Signature Bugatti EB110 in traditional french blue, it's a great model... this one might not be one of the more popular releases, but I've always been a big fan of "failed" 90's supercars like this one and the Jaguar XJ220 so I was super excited about it.
Of note is the neat little AutoArt "key" that gets supplied to assist you in lifting the spoiler up without damaging it. |

that AA EB110 actually doesn't seem that far off from the BBurago one that I have from 20 years ago...I mean the details are still significant but the overall exterior/proportions are quite similar Foto-Comparativa Bugatti EB110, AUTOart vs Bburago. - ForoCoches |

not a good description. a pair of socks left unattended would send a wife over the edge. a few hundred cars... there might be some leeway

i'm told that autoart said they were going to have an r32 with nismo stripes and wheels, but that was 3 years ago and still nothing.

probably because they took them from the r34, so they are at least 19" or bigger?
