    Hi all,

    My opinion is that the manufacturers sometimes do not bring out the correct models. Yes it may just be my taste but I'm not sure of that as i know of certain models that there is great demand for and yet they still are not released.

    My question to you guys is this. What would you rather have out of the following decisions?

    AutoArt
    Lamborgini Diablo 6.0 vs Lamborghini Murcielago Roadster
    Lamborghini Countach vs Lamborghini Gallardo
    Pagani Zonda vs Lamborghini Gallardo
    Bugatti Veyron vs Lamborghini Gallardo
    KoenigSmeg vs Lamborghini Gallardo

    Tamiya
    Porsche 993 GT2 vs Porsche Carrera GT

    I just feel that the 1/12 market is becoming larger these days and various opportunities are missed. What do you guys think?

    Matt,

    If we're talking 1/12s then I guess I'd go for everything other than the G-Spyder. Even though I love that car I reckon I'll be happy with the 1/12 G-coupe. I'd just love to see Autoart do those in 1/18 let alone 1/12 (I know countach and veyron are available and Koenigsegggggggg is in the pipeline).

    As for the Porsches - I'm not that fussed!

    john, I've edited it to take out the spyder of the G as there obviously isnt one.

    Also changed the first to a Murcie Roadster. I just think more folk would want the 6.0 over the murcie r'ster, tough call though

    Matt,

    I'll probably end up going for the Murcielago Roadster but I would definitely rather have the Diablo 6.0 in either 1/18 or 1/12 than almost any other model!
