    The only 1/18 288 GTO I know off was a Bburago model, which you might find on ebay. I'd try actually German ebay as the model was popular in Europe.

    However it is one the worst models you can find, pretty much everything is wrong with it and I had to completely disassemble mine and repaint it to make it look more like the real thing.

    Funnily enough the 1:43 Bburago is quite good if you only take overall shape in account (on the detailling it is, of course, crap, but it is a toy).

    ARGH!!!!

    Painful to see.

    Even the "Racing" version has the dopey tan interior, which is especially annoying since I've never seen tan in real life (not sure, but I believe that doesn't really exist, they all were black or red/black).

    Engine and transmission are even worse: All chrome.

    And don't even get me started on details like turn signals...

    PS: The irony of producing a racing version of a 288 GTO! WHATWERETHEYTHINKINGATBBURAGO???!!!
