    Thanks for the dates! I knew that all of those models were being released, but didn't know exactly *when* (although "tbd 2006" isn't so re-assuring on the 375+). I'm really curious to see that "Test" MC12 in carbon. I'm sure when I see one in the flesh, I'll want one, but by then they'll be gone. Perhaps I should just stick to the Mattel 1/18 MC12 on dubs...

    I don't know if they are coming out with any roadcars.

    I do want to add that these models are curbside only, meaning no opening panels/doors.

    thanks ferrariguy. i don't mind that they are curbside. for me, the most important aspect of a model is the body mold. it has to have the right proportions, otherwise it's just a toy. trim, wheels, a nice interior are next on the list. i think bbr makes very nice body molds/trim/wheels. if they were to make roadcars, they should look pretty nice.

    There will be 3 versions of the 375+ released (not all at once, though) -- the LeMans livery car, the Carrera Panamericana livery car, and a roadcar.
