Danny as I told you I love that M3.. I own a red one my self.. and it is one of my favorite. You made a very wise choice.

I think I know what model it is, check out the following link:

the company called CMC makes a 1:12 version but apparently a 1:18 version was due to come out at the end of '04.

It would make sense if its this one, since the detailing is amazing and would warrant such a high price.

EDIT: I just found the 1:18 SLR on their site, and its going for US$ 208 which is about £110 so its cheaper then what you saw

hmmm,interesting that could be the one.when i saw it the quality looked fantastc.i was thinkin whether £162 is good or bad to spend on one,i said i would never do that again after gettin the supra model....but this one looks really good

dingo · 01-07-2005, 07:43 AM

yeah it does, I found out about it in a magazine article I read today where they talk about the model a little bit......the 1/12 model would make a great showpiece

gis · 01-07-2005, 08:03 AM

how much is the 1:12 i cant imagine it bein cheap seen as the 1:18 costs that much,lol but man i bet its an awesome peice to look at

dingo · 01-07-2005, 08:24 AM

Holy shit!!!!! They cost about US $2000 - probably out of the question

Oh, just noticed your addition and since I own the same model, in red, I know it was a very good choice

congrats!

Nice bugatti :shock:

TT · 03-15-2005, 01:31 PM

Very nice! I almost bought it in 1:43 the other day.. then I thought a Ghibli would be a much cooler choice but I couldn't find the blue one I saw time ago anymore.. so I am stuck with no model LOL

dingo · 03-15-2005, 07:23 PM

Damm thats nice.....another one I didn't know was available in 1:18

I was just reading the Evo article on the Veyron last night so this is kind of fitting

I now have 2 models I need to find......more $$$$
