    Well, like i told you in other thread, i was wondering about buying a 550 Maranello GT from MG Model, and i asked if would be better the kit, or built. Finally, i decided to buy the built (ouch!! and so expensive) model. Here are some pics. It's the 550 Maranello GT Prodrive that Menu, Rydell and Enge drives in Le Mans 2002.The quality is superb, made in resin. It's my 51th 1/18 Ferrari.

    OK, the group pic is on the way.
    I've paid for the Maranello GT 352€ (around 420$). Too expensive for a 1/18 model car, but the cheapest price i've ever seen in one of those models. It use to cost around 420€ (around 500$), including shipping costs in all the prices.
    It has a very high quality, a good presentation, and i suppose that i'm one of the few proud owners of one of this in Spain. This is very important for me.
    Thanks for all the good comments.
    Soon i'll show you my collection.

    I sell the unbuilt kits for $165.00. I also could have done better on the price for the factory builts than what you paid, but you did get a very fair price.

    If anyone is interested email me off the board or pm me.

    Looks great. I would be afraid to mess up the kit myself. Good decision.
