Yes it is.... and because of THIS model, a few years back, I was introduced to a 1:1 car I never knew about.     Very nice Rich.  😎 😀

I don't have this model and don't know a lot about it. Richard, you calling it outstanding makes me think I must add it to my collection.

A very impressive car and model.

The overall quality, precision of trim and accuracy of every detail of the Matrix Models is always impressive and a notch over Stamp, GLM and Goldvarg. They are the crown jewels of my collection.

The most stunning is the 1939 Mercedes 770K Cabriolet that has been issued a few months ago but that's for another story.

I was not aware of this prototype...I was thinking Matrix was taking some creative license with the CDV. We learn something new every day. Thanks!

This one came out last year and only 100 were in the correct two-tone metallic gray. Mine is #053.
