So what is the opinion on: CMC Ferrari 275 GTB/C, 24H France 1966, Biscaldi/Bourbon-Parme Is it worth $737? Regards, Alberto
is a 1/18 model car worth $737 ? BBR made the same one model is sold out at the factory Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
The BBR is excellent , but all the window trim, headlight bezels and wire wheel spokes are photo etched and too flat, I sold mine for those reasons. On the other hand the CMC ride height looks to be excessive and on some the wheels are not centered in the openings, so neither model is perfect.
Back to my question, CNC has opening doors, bonnet, etc. Is it a better model for the $. Now, I am still where I started Regards, Alberto
Personally I would go with the CMC. Opening parts and highly detailed engine bay, boot as well as an interior that you can clearly see with the opening doors. Diecast model over resin which I personally think is a preference. Even though both are limited edition the CMC models tend to increase in value far more then BBR models do once sold out. The non limited edition models of CMC like the 250 GTO and California in red now command big dollars. Both are not perfect and the CMC can suffer from some quality control issues but overall that would be my pick if I had to choose one.
I have the BBR, to that particular version. I like it a lot, in terms of lines and stance i think it's better than the CMC. You will have agreat model regardless of what you chose. It depends on you budget!
I have complained once about a 365 P2 they were about to release, because the rims were in the wrong colour, and they replied saying it was only a prototype and showed me a pictutre with the model with the correct colours...and i bought it.
My GP Replica 246 arrived today. It’s a lovely model, some might not like the rivets but it really does look great overall.
A useful saving on a 1:18 Dino 246 GT at ck-modelcars right now ck-modelcars.de/en/modelcar-group-1-18-ferrari-dino-246-gt-year-1969-orange-mcg18167/p-62918/ I don't know that brand (Modelcar Group) but, from the pictures, it looks pretty reasonable for the price (€36 / $40).
it is not bad for 36€ even better vor 29€ https://www.modelcarworld.de/de/MCG/238373/Ferrari-Dino-246-GT-orange-1969-1-18-Modellauto.htm?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIv-j3rqWz_AIVR4fVCh0KowjJEAQYAiABEgIZSPD_BwE and how I bought it Image Unavailable, Please Login they had an 24%off offer they made a mistake, and you got both discounts
