bryant: I love it too!...obviously. Lol.

jacky: yea, I agree that the yellow is stunning...therefore I kinda regret repainting mine to matt black. I did it because the paint wasn't that good on mine...but still...almost impossible to find the yellow for a decent price.

aquila: Ferrari TT?

lkwanz: the barcode is just a font. so you type anything it will have the barcode on top. just find for any font with the barcode. it's free to download.

chan: coz the F40 isn't "related" to the 360, 430 and 458. Lol. So I thought I just do a shoot with the 360, 430 and 458 since they're all in one "family".

kent: yeap. It's a BBR. Actually, I kinda got lucky coz when I got it...it wasn't that expensive la. I mean it's pricey..but not as pricey as it is now. I got it for atleast...rm500 below the market price now. Not sure why tho since it has the highest number of pcs of all my BBR. limited to 1009 pcs I think.

bt then...i think the rims don't looks too nice in black

For me, black rims works well when it has minimal spokes so that the brakes can stand out but the V10 rims has alot of spokes so therefore...you cant really see the rims or the brakes. Now...the V8 rims...that would look good.

lkwanz: lol. no wonder u ask. nah, not the R8. I wanted the red r8...but I already have the light blue. If it had V8 rims then maybe...maybe...

bryant; can't go wrong with Verde Ithica but the appeal of the yellow and orange is that it has matching brake calipers. I would actually rate the black as the "least" desirable of all the Balboni's...even behind the white and grey.

Yea. Alot of the pictures in AA's site are pre-production sample...so the release model sometimes might have slight difference. But if ur asking between black and yellow then yellow would be my choice. No contest. Lol.

But like michael said...2nd choice is better. lol

lkwanz: sorry bro, i've never disassembled the R8 before but I guess it shouldn't be too different from other Kyosho. Did u try to just pull the tire out? Thats how I disassemble some of my Kyosho.

congrats bro on finally getting it done! Lol.

I did break something as well when trying to disassemble the E93 M3. I accidentally took out the break disk and broke the mountings for one of the rear wheels. So now it's loose...but it still displays well.

Well I suppose the reason the Estoque didn't make it, for now, is because of the financial crisis. I mean Porsche, Aston Martin, Bentley and Maserati all got 4 door saloon...and selling very well as well. So I doubt Lambo would wanna lose out on the market. Even Bugatti has given the greenlight for the 4-door Galibier.

But kennt...if I were you, I would avoid the 1/18 Mondo Estoque as it is...crap. Lol.

I actually prefer the big SV logo. Looks..."crazier" and suits a hardcore Murcielago better than the small SV logo. Lol.

bryant: awesome adds bro! The GTO is stunning isnt it?

Anyway, my parcel arrived today.

Finally got myself the GTO. Definitely paid...too much for it but it's rare and don't look like a new and better version is coming along...so I just decided to go for it. It's actually NOT that bad. I mean it's inferior compared to the latest Elite but then...this is an old model. So...wasn't expecting too much. Lol.
