    I see them on ebay, and the wheels looks pretty big/stupid..but I want the car.
    Is it one of those things that looks better in person or are the pics telling the truth?

    I have one but not sure if it is the Elite--Did they make a regular and Elite addition?? I thought HW only made one, but not sure if it is an Elite or regular... The one I have is very nice....

    They came out with a Elite one last year which looks the same.

    I thought the same thing---the version I have has been out for a few years and the quality looks Elite like-much better than a regular HW, but it doesn't say Elite on the box, I didn't think it did anyway....

    I don't think so, but I could be mistaken---If I get time I will check, but have about 250 empty boxes to go thru to find it!! :D

    You probably have the regular version if you'd had the model for a few years...as do I, I have the regular hot wheels version

    That version was out during the period hot wheels was making GOOD quality regular version cars, as opposed to the atrocity that they sell now

    IMO, if you can get the regular version MC12 (which is super hard to find now) its almost as good quality as the elite that is out there now...and for that exact reason is the reason why hotwheels discontinued that model...

    Regardless, I've seen the hot wheels elite version and it has great quality and definitely a car worth buying in a collection...

    That is what I was gonna do, thought the Elite yellow Enzo would look nice next to that MC12.
