Need recommendation of Ferrari F430 Scuderia kit

All right this is my first post and this is a quick question. Just need a good recommendation of 1/24 Ferrari F430 Scuderia kit!

I searched through, there are some great work here, seriously. Fujimi and Revell both have this car but which one is better? I heard that the fujimi also has some problem but revell is said not better anyway...

Or any additional PE parts etc. can help? Thanks!

The Scuderia made only by fujimi.
The F430 Berlinetta made by both fujimi and Revell .
So, if you wnta to build the Scuderiaversion, buy the fujimi kit. Otherwise Revell has engine and fujimi better shape and fitting.
For PE you should find plenty og the in any car model shop.
I try hobbydesign and its cheap and good. Not something astonishing but good.

Oh I just realize that! There are quite a few different version of F430 Fujimi provides, there is even a new spider version... confusing...

I would love a full engine instead of curbside version from fujimi. But I still have to decide... Thanks anyway!

For a Scuderia your only choice is Fujimi, and it is a fantastic kit.

Revell's F430 may have full detail, but honestly it's just not nearly as good looking as any of the Fujimi versions; I can spot the difference from a mile away. The Revell kit has clunky proportions around the front bumper, the wheels/tires are a bit clunky and look undersized. If you insist on a full-detail kit and want a Scuderia, you might combine both kits, as Fujimi gives you the top end visuals of the engine; what you can see through the engine cover they did a nice job.

Now, if you get interested in the new 458 Italia, the tables turn, as the Revell kit is much better than the Fujimi kit. Fujimi's 458 Italia is seriously inferior to any of their own F430 kits, yet more expensive.

Many thanks Zoom! I think fujimi it is!

And I have bought the 458 from revell and it is a great kit! Now I am trying to complete my Ferrari collection and F430 is the next after I played GT5! which is a really nice car! (Shame on me since I am not rich enough to have a real one lol)
