Elite Scuderia in blue

No, because apparently in their greed, trying to milk it to the limit, HW are making 3 reds. That is if they are making a regular red. So far, both red colors are nonexisting on a real Scuderia. I hope they do make it in Scuderia rosso.

 

Like this one----no affiliation with seller

Yep, this looks like a regular Rosso Corsa. However you can't tell from the pictures. I send him a message asking about it. I hope it is the regular color as I am not particularly happy with their metallic finishes

 

So, there is a normal red has not come yet?

I have 2 red and 1 blue Elite.....

which version is the one closest to the camera... seems like that one might be acceptable since there is no "regular" red version.

 

ALL three are ELITE versions

 

Right, right, I got that. What I'm asking is... is the one closest to the camera the ELITE 60th version or the ELITE non-60th version (those are the only two versions I can find on the ebay- in red)

Not that it matters much at this point... since I just bought http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280196113701&ru=http%3A%2F%2Fsearch.ebay.com%3A80%2Fsearch%2Fsearch.dll%3Ffrom%3DR40%26_trksid%3Dm37%26satitle%3D280196113701%26category0%3D%26fvi%3D1

From the pics it looked to be the most acceptable of the various red ELITEs. I also picked up the burgundy 125S ELITE.

 

from the pictures it looks like the regular red which I thought was not out yet. The 60th is matt chrome, in the middle of the picture

 

Edit: Nevermind made a mistake.

 

the order is : Pearl Red, then Matt Red (60th Anniversary version), and the last light blue.

 

I got the Pearl Red one---looks awesome....still want the blue though...

 

A different blue than I've seen yet... not my auction, I don't know the seller, etc...

this is the cheap normal version........not Elite

 

I know the difference between the ELITE and the non-ELITE... what I was getting at is it looks to be a darker blue than the ELITE/non-ELITE versions I've seen. I was merely posting it here instead of making a Blue Non-Elite Scuderia thread...

 

do you know whether HW will make a Elite version in this color?

 

That I don't know, I hope they do though - I like it better than the light blue.

 

ok.......there is a black one in Elite probably.... saw once in a buz trip last week.

 

i ordered a blue one just yesterday,i order it in a shop in switzerland but from the hotwheels catalog.

 

I got the 430S and 125S today... L2973 and L2977 respectively.

The 430 is metallic. Although, I think it looks pretty good. I took a few pics... It's hard to get a shot that accurately portrays the color...

Would you be able to post the HW product number of the 430 Scuderia? (i.e., HW 2973 or HW 2976)

Thanks!

 

It's in the original post ^^^

L2973

 

My bad....no wonder my wife says I can never find anything in the fridge......

How about....I was mesmerized by the pics?

 

I'll try and get some pics of the burgundy 125S, metallic 430S, and regular F430 coupe tonight - so everyone can have a decent comparison. I'll probably post a new thread and quit crapping this one up...

 

I would not say that you are crapping anything. I started a thread about comparisons and reviews. Instead of starting a new thread, you are more than welcome to "crap" the one I started. That was the reason for it. For people to post comparison pictures and opinions about models they own. So please post your pictures there. This way we can keep it all in one place in case anyone needs a reference in the future.
