I have that same car exept it's a nice green and there are'nt decals or a wing, I don't care much for the decals, but I wish it had a wing

When I baught that car and took it home, I noticed the left hand mirror was'nt there, I took it back to the strore to get another one, and noticed that thier entire stock of focuses were missing the left hand side mirror, I guess it's supposed to be like that.

Why do u say that? I think Bburago make some of the worst diecast models available, especially their 1/24 range.

I bought one for my friend's son. It's just for kids.
Both of us, old guys, worked on it to complete it to kid and we had problems. Wheels are too small for tires and tires drop down all the time.
Windows are from one part and broke it on one the middle to we can put in in car.
Like I said, just for kids. Low cost, low quality.

I kinda agree with the comments made, it has terrible proportions!
The only way I think somebody would buy such a model is because its wheels can spin and you can play with it.
Don't get me wrong, in my eyes its a toy, not a model car.

Bburango's are good diecast especially for the price.Although there 1/24 cars aren't very detailed.

I have yet to make any of Bburagos 1/24 diecast models but I made a nice 1/18 Viper gtsr. The thing has about a billion pieces in its engine. It looks great if you can do the decals well and has a good interior. Too bad the instructions are worthless.

I actually ended up scratching off most of the decals bcs they were put on by some incompetent oaf (wonder who that was)....
