THanks, @rich-sufficool.  I do too.  Nice looking model, too bad its sealed.  But TSM was the only other choice & its sealed & a lot more money.

AutoArt BMW E24 M6

I always thought / lusted that prices would come down to where I could afford one...in 1:1

Unfortunately for me, never happened. 

I've always loved the  beautiful styling of this BMW.  In my world,  it's perfect !

@gavin Cool looking car I know nothing about, other than it's an orange Porsche race car,  but I did notice the COOL graphics painted those "turbo-finned"  rims.  😎

Revell made some dayum nice models ! 

The Acura NSX, Nissan 300ZX, BMW 850CI, BMW 507, Porsche Slant Nose and one I'm still looking for...a '76-77 VW Scirocco in red just like the 1:1 I had.

Thanks guys!  Revell certainly had some unusual gems in their lineup.  That Scirocco was a great model.  I had its successor, the Corrado.

I wanted one so bad but couldn't believe the price ! 

I only paid 7K for my '78 Scirocco. I bought it off the showroom floor as soon as I laid eyes on it. 

It was a special production model. 

It was Alpine White, all trim was blacked out. It sat low on wide wheels and 50series tires

 Had Recaro style seats in a black corduroy type fabric.  

I owned it from Nov '77 till June '85 and only did what I consider to be minor maintenance on it meaning the battery, brakes and that was it. I never had to replace the clutch

 I believe when I sold it I had about 120,000 miles on it. And I did all of the maintenance on it by myself I do know that it did spit out a water pump at one time that cost me a whole $22 ! 

I actually wanted a Corrado so badly but when I saw the price it's like okay forget it.
