Best I could really do of the tail light, the P1 has really hard to photo tail lights lolDo show us (me) show good photos of those P1 tail lights when you get around to it!
Nice Mercedes.
Nice Porsche.My latest, a 1/18 scale Porsche 964 Carrera 4 Lightweight from GT Spirit. It's a fairly obscure 911 in real life, but fits in to my collection well.
Maybe I will get some pics of the AR and AA P1's side by side when I get a chance.Thank you for this. It has been a while but I think this ask stemmed from the TSM's P1 tail lights being non-existent to quote what people claimed. Something about the AR's lights irk me as well.
Just got this AMG GT3 Evo from the 2020 Nürburgring 24h, made by Spark, 1/43.
Are any of you into building plastic scale model kits?
I haven't built a model kit in over 30 years but I've been toying with the idea recently & have been looking at some of the builders on YouTube.
Some of them are happy to build the kit as it comes but others are right into up-detailing & customising what they feel the kit needs.
Awesome! I've been trying for years to get one that matches mine but it's either just the GT or it's a GT-p but with stripes instead of the badges or it's the wrong year. I've even thought of having a go at painting one myself but I'm not overly confident that I can pull that off.Haven't bought a 1:18 in years. But just had to get this thing because it's the same model and color scheme as my car. 😊 (Please excuse the dirty cardboard backdrop)

Price sounds reasonable but it really surprises me that there's never been an plain black (iirc, yours is black, right? 😅 ) GT-P produced. Might be better off going for one the correct color with stripes? Hopefully someone will make one down the track. 🤞There's a Biante 1/18 2003 Ford BA Falcon FPV GT-P Sedan Blue Pearl one at Albury Hobby Centre I've had bookmarked for a while now and it's not too badly priced ($150+ shipping).
Yep, black... or Silhouette by it's factory name. it's a sort of black metallic colour with blue flecks through it. The problem with going the correct colour is that they're the wrong year so they have different mags and my year only has one exhaust outlet. The only one I've ever found to in the correct configuration has been a Biante mini (1/64 scale) which doesn't really interest me as my other diecasts are 1/18 and 1/43. But even that is incorrectly tagged as a 2002 model, which irks me no end, possibly more than it should [insert embarrassed emoji here] considering there was no BA FPV 2002 model (while some were built in late 2002 they weren't released till 2003 ).Price sounds reasonable but it really surprises me that there's never been an plain black (iirc, yours is black, right? 😅 ) GT-P produced.

Youtube title says it is a Fiat 806.Looks like a Bugatti Boat Tail, a wonderful machine.
Oh, wow. Thought it was just plain black going off what I could remember from pics you've posted over the years. Must look great in the sun when it's all nice and clean (which being a dark color car I assume lasts for about, 10 minutes? 🤪😂). 👍it's a sort of black metallic colour with blue flecks through it.
Sounds like the dark blue might be the best bet for now. There's another version of the VC that Biante did years back that's black and silver. Ended up getting that when it was released because I figured it was going to as close as I was ever going to get to mine in the big scale. Luckily there aren't as many visual differences between the old VB/VC models as there obviously are with FPV's. 😅I've been looking on and off since 2005 when I bought my car with no luck and as the diecasts for my particular model are getting rarer all the time it's hard not to jump at the dark blue one. Maybe I could display it in a dark case
