>>>>does anybody know of a better 512TR model than the out-of-print Mira one? i have that one, and it's looks like they had a Testarossa model and just did a hack-job, maybe on old stock, to get to the 512TR. very unimpressive. crappy detail.

Mira was the only manufacturer to do the 512TR in 1/18. Hot Wheels has the 512M, but its basically just a Mira 512TR turned into a 512M. If you want to get rid of the "truck tires" on the Mira 512TR or HW 512M , use the tires off of a Burago 996 Turbo(could be others) and it'll look a little better.

So Jack, you're saying you used to have models of the models you just posted, or you used to the actual, real cars of the models you posted...?

Thanks for posting, by the way - those look great and are undoubtedly an awesome addition to any collection...

>>>Are you telling me you can just look at a model and know what company made it...?

Oh no, defenitely not with all models.

These are models that I have had at one stage although I still have a couple each of the top three ones, the TR is long sold.

I know that you like models, especially the bigger ones, that's why I posted them.

Nah, that's pretty obvious...

I meant the scale model elaborations. They are not "off the shelf" models.

Was not meant as a kind of a quiz or so.

The top two are "Charlie Kwan, GP of Macau 1995 (double seats) and 1996 (single seat)" elaborations done by Cavallo Scrimante here in The Netherlands.

The bottom two are La Mini Miniera elaborations.

Quite nice models and all base on Bburago 1/18th models.

The top 2 are F50 spiders, the 3rd one down is an F40 and the last is a 250 Testa Rossa...
