I had a Red 71 Spyder Black Interrior. You have not lived till you overhaul the F.I. all Mechanical!

Steve, I'm guessing that's Bburago's 8C - it looks too red for Welly's!!

Paul, it's by Maisto. Got it @ Costco. Nice for the price!

Dave, I've never had a F.I. problem with any car. My first F.I. car would have been my '78 Scirocco S. I put 130K on it. Thank-you to the F.I. Gods!

The Maisto & Bburago are the same model...just reboxed.

Great addition, though...I have the Welly. Love the styling.

Gavin, Thanks. I'd never seen the Bburago. And I haven't seen any Bburago in so long that I didn't know that they put in a working suspension. I know that the Maisto '57 vette is a reboxed Bburago along with the F-150 Lightning.

Hi Gavin, I just read the List 'n Review of the Alfa 8C. Now I kinda wish I had the Bburago cuz I like the 'candy apple red' paint color better!! Thanks again for the info!

Steve, I have a friend who has an 8C and the colour of yours is correct.

It's definitely an 'eye catching' shade of red!
