Its nickname is the Hippie Porsche.Β  Fitting, huh?

Thanks guys, glad you liked this beauty.Β  These long tails (also have the Gulf liveried '71...which is actually the same chassis number) are fantastic looking.

A gorgeous car/model that inspired so many future designs, including Datsun Z cars.... at least that's the way I see it. I don't know much about Ferraris or Datsuns.Β

These both look superb on display and together and would be a knockout for viewers to see in scale. I used to have a really nice Maisto 1/18 silver Lamborghini Murcielago and it always looked excellent.

I like the color on the Welly.Β 

Have they increased the price very much ? I think the last Welly I bought was one of the Aston Martin's in a metallic red and that had to been like in 2014 or 2013. I think it was almost nearly $40 or $50 but it was well worth the money IMO.Β Β 

It had excellent shut lines, beautiful paint and was put together very well and the wheels were well replicated. I was really impressed for a Welly model.

@100ford2003...I have that Aston Martin as well.Β  It is very well done...just needed lowered a touch, just like this Huracan.Β  I got this & a Welly Aventador off Ebay a number of years back for under $60 shipped (for the pair).Β  I'm very happy at that price.Β  The Bentley below is also very well done and relatively cheap.

I'm with you...I HATE black wheels.Β  They completely hide the detail of the wheels.
