Bought A 1/12 F50 does someone know if i paid the right price

cheap!! very cheap.. your are a great dealer! first price was 450 €..no comment this item is stoped.

 

You got a great deal! Wish I'd only paid that for mine.

 

i paid mine 250Euros in HK in france it was a the same time 400€..
one of the first F50 was sold on ebay 1200€ ...no comment!

 

I have a half a dozen of 1st version F50 before, sold them out for 700USD each sometime before the 2nd version released in past years...

 

but I found one for 230EUR on web .... still thinking...

 

yes at first it was a big big money, i prefer to wait...

 

Is the first version EXACTLY the same as the second version other than the packaging and small assemble required for the second version?

 

they are different... the chasis is improved in the 2nd version...

 

you told me that yellow version are better in detail for engine too.
F50 i think mine it s version 2.

 

The way Tamiya make the chasis is different, the major different part is the rims... if you had 2 versions, you can see the difference.. it is hard to explain...

the paint of 1st version is not too good...

 

the inner part of the rim is different, some minor difference between the suspension...

The paint is not too good, it can get rusty easily in wet condition. The shiny is another issue...

 

I dont think anyone would really notice these things unless you are a die hard model fan and inspect them for every detail. To me, I collect them all but i just leave them on the shelf to be displayed and never really look at the finer details. if anyone wants to look at them then they can but I always cringe when they pick up the Enzo and the wheels hangs off etc (Christian, I thought you like that one! )

i like the Tamiya Enzo, i can t explain to you, it s like that.
Maybe my Enzo' s are different than yours? i don t know?

can be that it comes to the fact that the direction is reversed...
(i mean in left side)

about wheels i put black FXX rims, i haven t your opinion...
about look not the car.

The weather in HK is so humid in May- Aug...

Well, the 2nd version is cheap to buy in HK, I take the 2nd version, as it can be convert to a F50GT 1/12 with a transkit, but for the ver1, it cannot... that's the biggest different.

 

The Black Enzo is nice and the wheels look great. In my honest opinion, I've never like black with black as I just think its too dark and its very difficult to see the contours ot the wheels etc (especially on a real car at night). A lot of people do like black cars with black wheels and for that reason I appreciate it. The model does look better in black i think than the red and the wheels add a touch of quality to the model.

It's just a beauty...

 

what about my purchase?

i paid £110 for giallo yellow f50, mint in box with auto art 1/12 dipsplay case?

good deal also?

think its the later issue F50 as the box looks more like that of the enzo

 

Excellent deal!

 

In Hong Kong, the yellow F50 is as low as 150EUR. I think this is the wholesale price already.

 

in France it s near 400€
F40 near 440€
enzo between 550 & 650€
......no comment

 

a black enzo is just 240EUR.
