Hi

You haven't got them yet ...lol

I will be REALLY pleased if they do arrive as then I can buy some.....but when a company promises something for 4 years...you must see why we are skeptical ....


All the best Brett

A little sensitive are we? It's not YOU we doubt, it's AUTOART.

I thought Missouri was the "Show Me" state!

You sprung for two! Good for you. Those look really nice & accurate.
Looks like Nicole's prices are as good if not better than any on eBay.
Hopefully sales of these will be beyond AutoArt's expectation and they'll get a GT or GTS into production.

Wow! My 928th post!

Nicole was better on price by 2cents LOL . I would and will buy from her, but I have been staying on this subject for several years ,and I think I cought her sleeping on this one! My friend in TX promised me the first he was to get, and I was able to get them off his Ebay store as soon as he emailed me they were here.
He says the S models will be out next, but no production plans as of yet on any variation from the OB

The detail on these are insane, right down to the smallest detail on the engine!
This was well worth waiting for and they did a great job recreating the car, unlike some other smaller diecast that seem to have later variations rolled into one model, or wrong scale parts.

The look great! Mine are on the way too! I also ordered one of each and plan to paint one of them to match the frog! Hopefully I can have it done for the Hilton Head Island Concours next month.

Those look unbelievable!

I don't think I've ever seen a scale model available with that level of detail at that price. Very nice.

I do hope they make the GT!

The level of detail is awsome , even down to how the car sits and its stance. I looks so close to the original brochures, everything is to scale . I would love to know the story behind the build of these diecasts. Pictures DO NOT do this justice.
