    I had a look at the Hotwheels models and it looks clear to me that the older 'Classic' Ferraris seem to look a lot better than the dodgy modern ones.

    Be that as it may, I kinda like the classic 365GTB in red (black kills all detail and the yellow is plain Hyundai awful) so what is this the only diff. between early and late?

    - early has clear corner blinkers and wood rim wheel

    - late has garish orange blinkers and black leather rim wheel

    Why do the Japanese do things so right?

    :D

    Early version has the clear perspex cover over the front lights versus popups on the late version. The late version has an antenna mounted on the back, the early version does not. What I personally don´t understand is the made the front blinkers all orange (late version), which is a US feature, but they did not replicate the rectangular lights on the rear fenders. Besides that, excellent models.

    I finally got off my butt and bought BOTH of them.

    In between is a car of the same era... 1971 Nissan Skyline 2000 GT-R.

    Gosh these are accurate cars.
