Yeah, ttribe and anyone else interested, I can't stress how cool the model is. It will complete any mancave/den/study IMO...

Comes in white too.

Dont forget the DB5, Ferrari 250, 330P, MB 300SL Gullwing....

Ok, so there are a few cars that are worthy of the automotive art label*


*IMO of course

ALTHOUGH, looking at the photos that particular one is definitely more 'deluxe' than the ones I have... and the cost reflects it for sure.

Hell no. I have a fleet of cars made by them.


I collect 1/18 diecast cars...most of them are AutoArt with some by Kyosho. I have a 1/12 as well, by Tamiya...it's the Enzo.

No E60 M5 at AutoArt.com...

The only 1:18 of the E60 M5 I've been able to get my hands on currently resides on my bookshelf and it's not even that great...nor is it the right color.

We can take this to the "diecast model" thread in Ramblings after this post, ttribe...but, you just had to ask: http://www.kyosho.com/blog/diecast_o...hp?id=09070018


Kyosho makes IMO diecast models as good in quality as AutoArt. Keep in mind, both AutoArt and Kyosho are what I would call the "acceptable" tier of model cars. Maisto and Bburago are well, a few notches below in quality.

If you want a decent model, AutoArt or Kyosho at a minimum. Brands like Exoto and BBR...are well, the caviar...

Anyhow, take any other questions you have to the diecast thread.




And you're welcome.
