It is quite a work of art if I do so say myself. I can post pix of it later when I get home.

Wish they had had that when I got my 1:10... it is decidedly cooler than the 1:10 - however, not much point in having both... when I could get several more 1:18 diecasts for that price... now, if someone wanted to buy my 1:10, or donate the 1:8... that would be sweet...

So, roughly how much money have you spent on models? If I had the money to go crazy like that I'd do it too, but for now I have a 2K insurance to worry about in February.

Blimey, UCP's No. 1 Ferrari fan anyone?

[Cyco]

What an amazing collection. I like it.

Have never been a fan of the T4 styling, but the model is superb.

well, it's a big if - I've lived here for 15 years and we've never had one - don't get too many earthquakes in Kansas. The display cases are all anchored to the wall with 4 bolts each, so they're not going anywhere without a big fight. I've been collecting for about 10 years now - collecting exclusively Ferrari for about 4 years. Currently, I'm at 65 1:18 Ferraris, 3 1:12 Ferraris a single 1:43 and a single 1:24 (not counting the Lego cars) I have a bunch of regular "hot wheels" sized Ferraris as well (at least 30, if not more)

Currently on my wish list:
1. Ferrari F310 (Schumacher)
2. Ferrari F310B (Schumacher)
3. Elite 599 GTB in Red
4. Elite F430 Challenge
5. hopefully someday they'll make a 1:12 288 GTO
