    Sponsor Cavallino Models has made up a batch of 1:18 exact replicas of the FerrariChat.com 355 Challenge. All the major race team sponsors will receive a model. Others will be available from Cavallino Models for $150 plus shipping. The pictures look great, I'll see mine in person Friday and report first hand.

    www.cavallinomodels.com or email Rita at sales "at" cavallinomodels.com

    Compare the model to the real car!

    I've seen a few examples of Rita's work on Challenge models, and it's very impressive. I've got one on order. Highly recommended!

    very cool. two questions:

    1) what is it based off of, if anything at all?
    2) does it have the "S"enna badge on the passenger dash too? =)

    That is way cool! The windshield banner is a bit off... but overall, it looks fantastic! Makes me want to own a distinctive enough car that I can have a model made of it and be so obvious that its MY car! Very cool!

    I think I may have found what I want to spend that F1 League prize on!

    LOL... John, how fast can yours be if it's still screwed to the platform...? :)


    Though i won't be ordering one of these anytime soon, i can certainly vouch for Rita and Cavallino Models... They make the best stuff; hands down...

    Well, if Carbon approves, they must put S/N's on the bottom of the model. :D

    I'll trade my ride and framed pic for a car. I'll even throw in a few more polo's and a limited edition thong with the phrase, "no skidmarks"

    I got my copy of the model in! Oh my, better than I expected. The detail is perfect. You can actually read the individual names of the $250 sponsors on the side. I didn't expect the decal to be that detailed, but it is. Here are all the 2004 $250 sponsors that you can actually read the names...

    Thank you for supporting our sponsor. I think you'll really enjoy the model.

    All you $250 sponsors, you can actually see your name in the decal! That's you Matt, Art, Tom, and others.

    Just tell Jennie that she is experienced in pleasuring women, doesn’t eat much and makes her own money.

    Talk to Cavallino Models, I'm sure they are, but they have to be ordered in batch.
