I'd disagree. Probably a misnamed file. That red car is the GT1...not the 959.

This is the 959...and I don't know of a GTS version...unless my Porsche memory is tanked...

I'd rather have the 2.5-16 EVO II though.

I'm not sure how it compares to the Quattroporte, but I did the configurator thing on the BMW NA website and the M6 GC the way I'd buy it was around $130k.

Okay...so, within shouting distance of the Maserati. It'd be a toss-up then if I were ever in the market for the M6 GC then.

But, based on overall quality and longevity, I would assume the BMW is likely better.

Like, production cars? Or are you referring to if those are CG images or models?



I doubt it is an image of car models (i.e. 1/18) because there isn't a car of the 918 Spyder yet (I would've bought it )...

I could be mistaken...but, I'm guessing that's a pic with real cars...?

MEKO...if you visit some of the hobby shops in Akihabara, Japan...you'd lose your mind. They have some insane diecast car models.

Yeah, that looks like it is in Japan (the pic with the shelf). What a wondrous country that is Japan...sigh.

Seeing the front, I was bit on the wall of whether I like it or not. After seeing the rear, nope, not feeling it.

Yeah, the center exit doesn't quite suit it but I think it's unique.
