    Hey guys,

    As some of you might have noticed, I've been offline for a while due to sickness. But I'm back finally!!!!

    Within this period I haven't been able to keep up with all the new F-cars coming out so I'm a bit behind with my collection.

    Now I'm after a F430 Scuderia in Red from Hotwheels Elite in 1:18. But I can't find it anywhere anymore (at least not in Aussie).

    Maybe any of you have bumped into something like this lately, or can give me a direction?

    Thanks so much for all your help!!!

    Lex

    I have been looking for one of these forever too. Everyone is selling the 60th Anniversary one but not the regular version and I was hoping to pick one up since I cannot find any red 458's.

    And welcome to Ferrari Chat! Enjoy. :D:D


    There are plenty of red 458's on Ebay. :D:D

    Some stocko Hotwheels, some Elite Hotwheels. Then there are the big dollar BBR ones etc.etc. :):)

    Plenty of selection in the colour red. :):)

    I just bought the light blue Elite F430 Scuderia on Ebay, and I couldn't be happier with it. The quality and features are much better than the Elite F430 that I also have in my collection, especially the quality and accuracy of the wheels as well as the Scuderia-specific interior details. For some reason, the Scuderia also has realistic door hinges while the F430 (released a few years ago) has simple dogleg hinges instead, and this makes the model look a bit more substantial as well.

    Pardon the silly question, but does anyone happen to know the color name for the light blue Scuderia that I have? I assumed it was Azzurro California at first glance, but since I don't claim to know every color Ferrari offers, I thought it might be a different shade of blue.

    Ahem.....there's a LOT of blues in the Ferrari palate, and I think some codes have been renamed as the paint vendors changed...

    Among the light blues are Azzuro California as you mention..the early name on the Dinos was simply Azzuro Metallica, as seen carried over on my early GTB here.

    What the call it in current PPG formulations I'm not sure.....
