    Hi all! I am seriously considering buying a 1:18 elite Maserati mc12 from Idcow.com. They are having a 35% off sale and I've been looking for one of these. Has anybody had experience with the site? I remember a while back trying to order a few cars from them and it being very difficult. They actually sent the wrong one. On the other hand my good friend Jack has ordered from them twice before and has had no trouble and fast service. Give me your experiences.

    Thanks,
    Dan

    I've used them a couple of times.

    I would reccomend them.

    I have bought 2 models from them, including the HW MC12. Excellent service, excellent delivery time. Got my models in about 2 days.

    Highly recommended.

    Maybe I'm late but prestigehobbies.com has the Elite MC12 for $50. Just got mine from them yesterday, no problems with the transaction at all

    BTW it's an awesome model, you won't regret it :D

    Don't be, they are in California. I got my 2 cars in 7 days via UPS. Very good, except for one thing. My MC12's seatbelt cane unglued and there are 2 chip in the back portion. Now I'm not a model perfectionist so I put the chips out of my mind and glued back down the seatbelt.

    I just ordered from them a second time. This time, I got the Maisto Superleggera (orange) and the Reventon by Burago. I also got a 1971 Porsche 917 Long Tail 917 Long Tail Le Mans by auto art. Anyone got one of those yet?

    USPS tracking is a joke. I've had several items show "info received" but no shipping status or tracking info for days after said item was delivered. If it isn't UPS, FedEx or DHL, I don't believe the tracking info...

    Orange Superleggera? I didn't know Maisto made one, I thought just gray and yellow

    However, Autoart will be making the Superleggera in orange, can't wait for that :D

    Haha, I wouldn't worry. Knowing Autoart the Superleggera will be released sometime in 2012.
