A great pairing. I have the Maybach, but the Audi isn't part of my collection.

Chav , great pics. Love both and colors too...

just curious as to your original impulse. The mind boggles. Love your posts---always thought provoking, hence the query.

nothing special John 2 years ago I purchased the Audi, I paid good dollars and I was very happy with the model. I wanted to advertise it here, and matched it with the Maybach because of the similar color pattern and origin.
In general I have limited time to take pictures and to post, so when I do so I try to be original, not to replicate other people's work and to show more unique models. I do have a lot of good stuff...

Phil the brown/beige version is more respected for whatever reason...

It constantly sells above 250. Recently I watched the black/maroon LE listed for months at 299, by a respected seller, without buyers. The LE is also the last 1/24 produced by CMC and probably the most complex 1/24 CMC along with the brown/beige version of course. Beautifully executed model, except maybe for the high roof line.
