Great place that I sometimes buy from, great prices too (in Canadian). Sign up for their newsletter as they send coupon codes somewhat regularly.

got this in Jan but never got around to reviewing it

Papaya Orange paint is incredible
the details of the team headphones, exhaust pipes, brakes seem pretty average for a Signature model
side compartment cannot be opened unlike the vanilla model
overall stance/proportion is great as you'd expect from any AA

Spoiler!


I purchased it from Art @ Raceotica who's based in Austin TX and he frequents the events at Circuit of Americas. Excellent service, if you find a better price elsewhere don't hesitate to ask if he's willing to match it.
Raceotica Legendary Motorbilia DieCast race and super car models

I also finally put up the lighting in my NA V12 shrine...the LED strip actually looks a lot better in person the photo sucks. if I get a chance I should learn how to polish acrylic
Spoiler!
