that's $538.19. Shouldn't they deduct the VAT?

not all Euro sellers deduct the VAT. I know from other collectors, neither GT-Spirit nor Ottomobile deduct the VAT if you buy directly from them.

The side-by-side does reveal some differences. CMC did come very close but missed on some area.

Most glaring are the headlights. The CMC is angle of sweptback is more pronounced than the 1:1. It would also appear the the fenders are not as tall as the 1:1 too. That could be the result of a slight difference in angle and the different location of the side marker lamp.

Remember that CMC modeled their car on a car that was rebuilt by a coach builder that had no direct connection to Ferrari (See Frank Lemire's previous post).

CMC's interpretation of the exhaust pipes as they leave the headers and appear in the front wheel arches seem much more obvious and consequently rather obtrusive.
