    That's pretty cool, I would buy one if:
    I could hear the engine and shift the gears.
    If it was cheaper, maybe in the 50s-60s
    :)
    I love the illumination and the key in the ignition

    That is incredible, would be super cool if it had a working tach.

    That's just awsome. Is GMP a good shop to actually buy from? I have never dealt with them before. But ordering yes :D

    And when is the release date?

    Since they already have several earlier Ferrari V-12 engines in the same scale, maybe they'll do an Enzo engine as well, and make it operable in conjunction with the dashboard. But I'm not sure how you can reproduce paddle shifters in 1:6!

    I hope the wheel mounted shifter LEDs illuminate too.

    GMP is a manufacturer... Id like to think they are reliable to buy from

    If you've had a problem with one of our instrument panels, please return it for a refund or replacement. This is the first report of a broken key or light difficulties for that matter, but regardless of the problem we've always stood behind our products and would much prefer to replace it than have a dissatisfied collector.

    BTW the instrument lights do come by rotating the left stalk behind the steering wheel. Rotate the top of it towards the dash to turn them on.

    There are a number of other feature that work on these:
    The key which fits in the ignition, does accurately replicate an Enzo key
    The air vent positions are adjustable
    All of the buttons push,
    The hvac controls are all adjustable.
    The shifter paddles are spring loaded like the originals,
    The steering wheel rotates and there is a small, simple attachment to the base so it also serves as a business card holder.

    We (GMP) are a small company and fairly new to Ferrari (It took us over a year to acquire the license) but we've been in business for almost 16 years, and take pride in our reputation for quality, accuracy and great customer service.

    Please feel free to PM or call me (Mark) at GMP @ 770-867-0786 if you have any questions. I'd be glad to help/reply.

    They are about 6 inches high, 8 1/4 wide and 4 deep. The business card holder which is a formed wire piece adds about an inch in dept when it's installed.

    Please let me know if you want pics. I'd be glad to e-mail some.

    We can also do a free freight deal for any FChat members too.

    I am a bit biased here and want to make the following disclaimer:

    1.) Mark Sanderson is the general manager of GMP and a good friend.
    2.) Tom **** is the owner and another friend. (Don't want to give out his name without his permission-Mark has given out his.)

    Now having said that

    These guys are true enthusiasts-they have a great desire to make the best product out there Their entry into Ferrari models is a new one but they have hit a home run with the 330 P3/4 and have a number of neat products coming out. (Which I cannot reveal.) Tom and Mark, along with all of GMP, stand 120% behind their work. If you have an issue-call them. They will do more than any other model company out there to resolve an issue. Have complete confidence in ordering from them. You will not be dissappointed. Check out the 1/6 scale Ferrari engines-they are true works of art.
