There's a limit to my Tifosi-ness....
This goofy little tribute is well on the other side.
I'd love to know what Enzo would have thought of this piece of marketing.
and BBR's thinking? "Hell, in resin we can take a shot. We'll run it up the flag pole and see who salutes"

Rich, BBR has a close link to Ferrari, hence Fiat, I suppose.
Both the model ($290) and the 1:1 ($57,000) are expensive - you can buy quite a lot of model / car for those prices.
I like the Fiat 500, our daughter has one in normal guise. They are cheap to tax, insure, run and buy; it is also well made and fun to drive and has more space in it than you would imagine. But I don't think there is a need for a supercar version.

No doubt, the 1:1 is for the person who has money to burn. Most likely already...
... a Ferrari collector, and an extra $57K is just pocket change. This "tribute car" is fun and he says "Why not? I'll just put it the corner and let my grandkids play with it when they visit."
