egh, i only paid $180 for mine.

having said that, i am forced to not recommend that you get this one. it's really detailed, but the execution is still not up to par. as far as resin models goes, otto mobile/gt spirit are are much better.

i have more to rant about. they screwed the car down to the base so deeply that it flatspotted the tires. the tires should not be touching anything because of the spacers underneath but they got compressed.

maybe in time autoart will release one...

almost bought a $200 model then the seller tells me there's a small blister on the hood...who knows how many more may pop up a few years down the road
