    it looks like a hot wheels elite because the rear wing has a split in it.

    You know that really bugs me. I know the Hotwheels F40 is basically the Bburago F40 but why did they cast the rear deck and wing like that. I have a 1/12 Fujimi F40 and that is the same but I filled the join when I built it. The 1/12 Kyosho is done correctly so it can't be that hard. I know it's going off the thread a bit but it's annoying. I have the Elite F40 which is generally very good APART FROM THE JOIN ON THE REAR WING!!!!

    rant over.

    It is the Elite F40.

    What is this "split" you're referring to? I guess I'll have to look closer when I get home today.

    Ah I definitely see now. Never noticed at first, but even still it doesn't bother me THAT much. Still love the elites.

    I guess I can live with it too - just wish that Exoto came through on their F40s! The Elite is the best so far
