    Which one would you choose? I am mainly trying to decide between a Kyosho Miura and an AUTOart Miura. Any opinions?

    The last two Autoart's I bought had HORRIBLE paint.

    Kyosho.


    Paint quality and workmanship of Autoart is very unstable...

    I bought a red/black Veryon 16.4 last month.. the wheels fell off...

    the 1/12 Murcielago Roadster yellow... it has missing parts

    I went for the AutoArt a few years ago. I didn't have any quality problems and IMO the AutoArt is more accurate.

    I've always considered AutoArt and Kyosho very close in quality, level of detail and value. In fact, I had to look at the bottom of mine to tell which it was (AA), it's very close to what the previous poster's photos show. I'd let color availibility or price be the deciding factors. Let us know which you choose.

    PS- My AA Lambo is light yellow close to Fly Yellow w dark blue interior. IIRC they make a lime green which is very cool also.
