    Ok I need some schooling from the experts. I purchased some dioramas and need to pick up 1/43 scale Ferrari's. What's the best brands? Give me some options. I need one LeMans car and a Targa Florio car.

    For both Le mans and Targa Florio you can find some good models at good prices (let's say between 30 to 50€) from Art model, Bang, Best..they are great model for value...if you wan't something more exclusive, you have Heco, BBR and a couple of others.

    Take a look at IXO on eBay also. They did a lot of LeMans and TF a few years a ago.

    You have to look under the IXO models tab (Lemans and classic GT cars) as well as the Ferrari tab.

    IXO, Kyosho, Mattel, Look Smart make good 1/43 cars. BBR is the best and most expensive. Is BBR worth the higher cost? Maybe, maybe not.

    Just saw this. Haven't really decided. Was probably going to depend on the appearance of the model car.
