Default How Wheels Ferrari FXX on Ebay

The first Hot Wheels FXX auction has shown up on eBay:

http://cgi.ebay.com/1-18-Hotwheels-E...QQcmdZViewItem

Note the silver wheels.....

Why on earth would they improve the quality over their past Enzo model yet not do the wheels correctly? I can understand that cost restraints limit some of the detail when you are selling something for around whatever it is they are going to be priced at ($75CDN?), but to miss something as obvious as the black wheels......This is very disappointing.....

lol @ the wheels
the most probable thing is that they based it on the media pics... still just because of that, probably I won't buy it...

i have 1996 frist edition set (12 cars) and they are worth over 100 buck together hot wheels makes limited wheel sets, inter. color, paint jobs, etc. there maybe a little difference between two but that can mean alot. also to a collector with it not being in the box its like a 1/4 of the value :roll:

I wondered about it not including a box. Is it possible this is some sort of pre-production/sample version?
