LaFerrari Friday 1:24 Ferrari LaFerrari by Tamiya Masterwork collection.
Excellent detail, nice paint and superb assembly quality. Nothing opens. Click on the picture to see higher resolution.

Some of the pictures are grainy due to the high aperture I had to use to increase the depth of field. I didn't use a tripod, so I had to bump the shutter speed as well. I guess the camera had to adjust to higher sensitivity, hence the higher granularity.

Geoff, these are mostly sold from Japan.

Several months ago there was an auction from US and it sold at better price than what I paid. There are very few pictures online, that's why I wanted to represent the car well. However, despite shooting at day light, the color turned orangish. The real color is nice Ferrari red. Time permits, will try to take better pictures.

Nice! Thanks for sharing. "Pista" in Italian (and Bulgarian) means "track".

Very nicely and cleanly assembled.

Also inspiring for model builders, seeing what can come from a stock Tamiya kit.

Here is the next level ... 900 hours of work!
