Very glad to see your new video, John!

The model looks amazing! That's wonderful to learn about new manufacturer. Be honestly, I hope to get additional information in future. What about price snd what is the country which produces the models?

Absolutely beautiful models.  I was pleasantly surprised at the price figure.....I had expected it would be higher given the intricacy and exclusivity.  This type of car is not my personal area of collecting but I love this one nonetheless; it is a work of art to be appreciated.  Nice to see this addition to our hobby.

John, I would like to take a moment to thank you for your ongoing MY Take clips; I realize that it takes a lot of time and effort to do so.  The truth of the matter is that you provide a valued service to collectors and indeed manufacturers by offering a well considered and presented review, which includes both positive and negative comments.  It is obvious that you are an enthusiastic hobbyist who is willing to do a very considerable amount of work to prepare your My Take clips from an impartial, well considered perspective; your integrity radiates in your attitude as you speak.  Your model knowledge and hobbyist relationships with the various collectors and model makers form a major educational plus for collectors to experience and most importantly it results in our beloved hobby moving forward from strength to strength in these often difficult economic times.  Thanks again, your dedication to our hobby is much appreciated.

@jack-dodds, thanks! And thanks for being a positive and encouraging presence on the boards, my friend. Some folks seem to struggle to portray that type of attitude. 😉 As two close friends are fond of saying, "It's a hobby! We should be having fun!"

Nice model, but I would just love to see the Szinger done.....

IMHO the Szinger is a true piece of human and tech-engineering, with parts that are totally different from the normal run-of-the-mill supercar.

But then again, the Pagani is much safer to produce, because every supercar-fan knows about them.

And in the end it is all about money, right ?

Each manufacturer just wants to sell all of its models....

Czinger, click here. Looks like the two companies have similar philosophies.

What an amazing model and a fine video look at this one, John. The amount of detail is really astounding and it is also packaged beautifully.

You summed it up well for the My Take videos and John K’s contribution to this hobby. The videos are great.
