    Just received the latest Exoticar catalog and it now features the 1/18 250 GT Lusso. Very nice.

    Just called Exoticar after seeing the Lusso on their website - not in stock but expect it in a couple of weeks.

    Hard to tell, but it looks like they may have improved the quality of their wire wheels.

    I got a nice TR model on Ebay and looking at those metal wheels I start to understand the criticism on here for Mattel. There is room for improvement.

    I think Mattell is sensitive to that as their one major problem. If they are good, would consider getting a couple of extra and retro fitting my 250 GT SWB, GTO and LM.

    I would post a helpful picture, but I can't.... :)

    "Word on the street" is that the Mattel Lusso will be out to coincide with the CDN GP.
