    I have a BB512 model but can't seem to find a BB512i one. I want one with the injected engine rather than the carburated one. Does anyone know where I can find one ?

    frank,

    i was in vegas a few months back and found a store in venician that had models. they had an allegretti built mini f2 car...simply lovely!

    they did also have a 1/18 boxer model that was made by kyosho (SP?).

    if you are resourcefull, you may be able to find one.

    good luck.

    the kyosho you saw was probably a 512BB not a 512BBi.

    are you sure it was a 512BBi?

    you could always call the Venetian, parkerfe. but isn't that an ExoticCar.com retail outlet? they don't sell a BBi (i just got my BB from them today).

    you might inquire with CavallinoModels (a board sponsor, i believe) and ask them about their customization programme - maybe their guy can build you one based on the BB model and other engine parts.

    doody.
