    I just went to Exoticar.com to order an F40 model and all the ones I was planning on ordering werent there, half of their Ferrari collection is gone, I checked for the ID code and showed no result. Anyone know why?

    I got tired of finding out that a great deal of what's in their catalog is actually unavailable (is the 288GTO still there?). There are lots of places that will deliver "desktop" models to your door, to say nothing of eBay.

    Exoticar stinks with regards to their site and their catalog always has things that are currently unavailable or not released yet. I would suggest you try eBay, Rare Model Cars, or Cavallino Models for the model.

    go to ebay and search for Pocher F40
    it is the best one in the market
    the body of the model is painted by Ferrari factory

    Pocher is a great model for the detail and size. I would recommend that one as well. If you are looking for something smaller go with the 1/18 Scale Ferrari F40 bu Bburago. That Bburago version is better than the Hot Wheels version when it comes to details.

    I purchased my F40 at a Sharper Image store. They had the car in red and yellow for $32.95.
