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

I'd say it's probably pushing the outermost boundaries of my wife's patience at this point

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?
