    Thanks AxerJk it's nice to have my efforts appreciated.😊I just figured if you want something badly enough, and you get no joy. You need to sort it out yourself.

    Thanks from me too!! I've been waiting for a scale model of the car for years...

    Edit: I'm watching some fronti-art models and I think I will have to keep on waiting... From 300€ to 700€ for 1/18 scale cars...

    But, thank you any way... Let's hope other manufacturers think of the car if fronti-art has success...

    Not exactly, but Frontiart usually post to their facebook page a short time before a model is available, say a month or 2 I'm thinking.

    Well it has arrived! After around 25 years or so, of hoping and 2 years of talking with frontiart. I finally have a 1/18 Cizeta. This model is incredible. Extremely accurate, and the lights pop up, I cant recommend it enough. I still get a warm glow knowing this model exists due to my passion. Thanks again to Claudio for licencing your amazing car. :)

    No problem, I did it cause I wanted a model so badly, but I'm happy that we all get to share in our enthusiasm. They just announced two more colours also.

    Damn you Alan, you just cost me more money! :D :D :D

    I am keeping my fingers crossed that the white one is pearl white with the side strakes. The prototype is my dream car!

    Hey Claudio! I did find out shortly after I made that post that it's not pearl, but I ordered one anyways along with the red one. I am excited to get them!

    Chris (the pop up headlights guy) :D

    My red one just came today!!! It is phenomenal!! This is by far the best model I have ever bought. The paint application is perfect, the proportions are accurate, and the platform is actual carbon! I have two more coming. :D :D :D

    Thank you very much for making this happen!

    Mine says 066 out of 500, yours?

    I like that black one, and the fact that it doesn't have a Ferrari engine in it! :D

    My white one should be arriving fairly soon, and the black one after that.

    My red and black are both number 1 :) I did not go for the white, maybe I will regret it one day not having all three number 1s. Though I'm sure more colours will come!

    Ahh, yes! It only makes sense since you're the one who made this all happen. :D

    I am really hoping they come out with the prototype model, that one is a DREAM!!!

    You knew that had to happen!! lol

    But the yellow one needs to be the TTJ Spyder. I doubt they'll make it though.

    In fact, I put a down payment for the black one. I'm wondering if I should transfer that down payment to get a blue one instead. Black seems like kind of a dull color for this car. It seems like it would hide the lines of the car too much. It's hard to tell from the pictures, since black doesn't photograph that well. What do you think?
