Minichamps
Carousel 1
Exoto
Grand Prix Classics


(You can go to www.speedgear.com, and search these brands)

Definetly do not get HotWheels, maybe, if this person likes to build model kits, get a Studio 27 or Tamiya car.

maisto did a "shell 30th anniversary" Ferrari F1 (1/24 i think)

Bburago make/made some as well, 3 Ferrari's (1996, 1997 & 1998 models)

they (Bburago) also made: ferrari 641/2, benneton ford, grand prix f.1, atlantic racing, imola racing, pacific grand prix, long beach, ferrari 641/2 (they had two types), laguna seca & monza grand prix.

the names are what the Bburago 1999 catalogue calls them, they are all 1/24.
