    You really don't want this one, you can really just give it to me, i'll pay say maybe $20.00 plus shipping. Ok, $40.00. but that is my final offer.

    What are you nuts that thing goes for more than $100.00 U.S> even on ebay.

    If you really don't want it I will buy it.

    If you can find any more, i will pay you for it. My house keeper got some sticky fingers, and my 275 drove off all by itself. have been wanting another one for a couple of months, but haven't wanted to play battle on ebay or the other sites. PM me if you can get anymore. I 'll send money registered mail to you.

    If its 24th scale it not really that rare. And I think its by Italeri, not ERTL. If you think its worth $100 I'll be happy to sell you mine for $75 and mine is unbuilt in the box.

    it is 1:18 ERTL European Classics underneath the car it reads: ERTL Dyersville IOWA. (How Old could it be?, I assume that brand doesn't longer even exist. I found it at an older toys shop. coverd by a thick coat of dust ,hey Dana I'm pretty sure there's another one for you... tomorrow I'll go there and let you know if you ship one barchetta for me (they were asking $40,I paid $30 bucks) BTW in it's ERTL original box it reads: Jean Pierre Beltoise the french Grand Prix driver reported covering 75 kilometers in 23 minutes.(in a 275 GTB 4) That's motoring!!!

    ERTL is still making die cast cars. To my knowledge ERTL is one of the oldest die cast manufacturers in the US. Had ERTLs as a kid and still have some now. Lately their 1:18 stuff seems to be more 50s, 60s type cars trucks.

    Urraco it is a personal comment "Maintain this car for your colection" Its very difficult to find it now. Sometimes we can see one in Ebay in very hight price. But if you need money or you need another model go head !! :)

    Out of the 3 Ertl 275 versions, yellow is the rarest, red is second and white is third. They look 10X better if you take the Borrini (sp?) wheels from one of the Hot Wheels older Ferraris (Daytona, 250M, 250 GT CA spyder, etc) and put them on the Ertl.
