Is it me, or is the Scaglietti the ugliest Ferrari in a long long time? Why doesn't Revell release their Euroean AG models over here - licensing rights?

They do show up from time to time; the S Class I built was purchased from Hobbytown USA and was packaged as a Revell Germany kit.

Dunno, there is some stiff competition from the likes of the Enzo.

Licensing is one thing, but the market demand is more like it.

I couldn't agree more. I show up with Mercedes and BMW models among american cars from the 60's. They don't draw too much interest.

Ooooooo the BMW Z1 and the Porsche 944! Ah finally I can get my hands on them.

I *THINK* the Escort is just a repop of the old Esci kit...available for many years at an almost throw-away price.
