Ixo's Museum version of the 1933 Pierce Silver Arrow was silver with blue trim and chrome wire wheels. Like the Voisin I posted yesterday, I felt they missed the mark. The Altaya version is silver/gray/red pinstripe with red wire wheels and looks just like the one I saw at the Imperial Palace car display in Las Vegas in 2003. The Silver Arrow had V-12 power; only five were built with three known to exist.

I once owned the Brooklin and the Franklin Mint versions - the former an early windowless single color version and the latter with the infamous FM excessive door gaps. So today I'm happy with just the Altaya/Ixo.
