Thats a nice collection mate....why did you buy the GT3 RS in both colours, better to get a different model then 2 nearly identical ones, but thats just my opinion. :)

TT 11-23-2004 09:30 AM

Sweet couple the RS ;) I wanted to pick up the red one to go with my blue but then I decided it wasn't wise :D

BTW; I wasn't aware about the M5 ringtaxi model!!!! Is it already out? if not, when will it be released?

go get it at porsche dealer quickly :!: :) i've been told it's a limited edition ,dealer only
but it costs €170 :?

Autoart is also making one, should be avaliable Q4 2005 :? but much cheaper , around €90 Millenium edition

TT 12-16-2004 01:05 PM

Very nice addition! I got a small Porsche too, a 1973 911 RS but it will have to go under the Xmas tree!! :twisted:

I bet quality is very good, but I am sure the Millenium edition AA one should rock too :D I hope I will never see one or else I will NEED it :D

Vansquish 12-16-2004 01:10 PM

Beautiful cars man, can't wait to see the CGT in its entirety

dingo 12-17-2004 05:18 AM

very nice....I think its a little expensive so I might wait for the AA version. :wink:
I hope you post some more pics, would love to see more detail. :D

gis 12-17-2004 08:15 AM

indeed i think i will also wait for the AA version,but please post pics of your dealer version

It's hard, especially after seeing those pictures of your 3 ferrari's :o

You guys don't happen to know where I could find the #430 986990
and the silver '99 ( can't find the number anymore :? ) :?:

Good luck for when your mum sees her credit card bill :wink:

Cigarette1 01-22-2005 09:15 AM

1x 2003 GT3 lapisblue

all 1/43 :D

Mr.Vercetti 01-22-2005 10:29 AM

Why did u buy the exact same model twice? U bought 2x 1999 GT3 Sauberblue, and 2x 1998 GT3 supercup VIP car (Dealer Edition) , 2x 1999 GT3 red (Dealer Edition).. These models r the same. Even their color is the same... :roll:

even bought the sauberblue 3 times :wink: it's because those are the last ones avaliable, will be worth about €100
I bought them for 30 each so 8) ,same with the red version and supercup

also bought the blue RS twice because there are 2 version's , one has the correct striping = rivierablue, the other one is much darker
but the rivierablue is very hard to find, I got the last one at belgian porsche importer and found another one on ebay, seller luckily didn't know about the colors :D

Mr.Vercetti 01-22-2005 02:34 PM

So u intend to sell them... Hehehee! :mrgreen:

ikon2003 01-22-2005 03:33 PM

That's sweet - the 996 is a really great car - i can see why you got so many. def makes the collection stand out. hope you get those ones u want?

no, i'm missing one of the 1999GT3 :( won't be easy to get hold of that one
it's a silver one ,number 430 068000
was the first color they released that model in, don't know why but seems to be very special those first colors :? if ever one appears on ebay, it won't go less then €200
so each € i can make profit on selling the rare models i got 2/3 times comes in handy :P

gis 01-22-2005 07:50 PM

lol personally i dont see a point in buying that many of the same model.........very nice,but i dont see the point.but whatever floats your boat i suppose :D

Cigarette1 01-23-2005 02:31 PM

:oops:
If you know you will be able to sell that model for a lot more ? Wouldn't it be stupid not to pay it ? It's so easy money...

A friend of mine who got me into this 1/43, recently bought 7 GT3 models for €190...now they go for €200-€250 a model 8)

gis 01-23-2005 06:23 PM

yeah i see your point exactly,lol and it is a great idea,just meant i personally wouldnt buy models to intend to sell,id liek to get a model to keep. :D

TT 01-23-2005 06:26 PM

The idea is actually clever, but the second I buy a new model, even if I already have an identical one in another color, I know for sure I will NEVER sell it :D

it's about collecting, not doing business :D

gis 01-23-2005 08:02 PM

^^^ thats exactly how i meant it,lol TT said it better :D

Cigarette1 01-25-2005 06:06 PM
