i reckon they are worth it. the quality is excellent. very hard to find a fault. another thing is they are rare. only about 250 or 300 are made for the world.
if you want F40 or F50, get one the F40 from Kyosho and F50 from Tamiya. they are rather large but hell are they beuatiful.

I have a question.. what's the best brand for 1/43 scale models?
For Ferrari, I will go for BBR...
For Japanese, I will go for Ebbro
what about the others? like Porsche or Lambo....??

Beside BBR (not so cheap) and Ebbro (already affordable), the best cheap ones are IMO, Autoart, Ixo, Minichamps and Kyosho

i reckon Autoart is really good quality
Avoid Maisto like a plague unless you're on a budget. So many details are left out in those cars.
