most of the other forums I visit have threads like these...just an excuse to show off some models. 😉  Everyone, feel free to post pics and/or comments.

1 pic per post, per day. 

AutoArt 2005 Ford Mustang (S197) GT

other than the silver stripes, an exact match for my 1:1 2007 GT.

These AA 'Stangs are great. I have a few but I'm not really fond of these factory FoMoCo fan-blade rims.  As for those stripes....they can be removed with products like "Goo-Off' and/or Mineral spirits (I've removed "many a stripe"  this way).

Rich, that's perfect!  Not sure I've seen many of these AA CS GTs. Those are the BEST rims (IMO) for this car!

@rich-sufficool.  I passed on the CS, since I had the GT & GT500, but I do love that model, especially in that dark red.

@chris  That's tempting.  Might have to try removing them.  I do like the rims on the CS, but at least around here, they were much more common.  That's why I like the fan blades.

Today's pic...

UT Models 1998 Porsche 911 (993) Turbo S

My favorite 911.  The 993 was the first 911 Turbo to offer AWD.  The Turbo S was the last of the air-cooled 911s before the water cooled 996 generation.  Only 345 were ever made.

Despite being a resin, I always thought this Norev was nicely done. From any angle it all looks "right."   (Even better than a few Autoart Vettes..IMO)

From what I've read, these (& some other recent releases) Norevs are actually diecast, not resin...but they are sealed.  I agree, on the look, though...really nails it. I missed out on the AA Coupes, but I'm pretty happy with this.

I have 11 UT Porsches & love all of them.  They really did a good job & were very reasonably priced.

@chris  Thanks Chris.  Love the Countach, early cars or late with flares & wings.  They're all good.

Thanks @chris.  I have the Challenger T/A in yellow.  Definitely a good color.
