    There is the "sedans, coupes, verts" and/or "muscle/pony" sections for those. Or at least the way I see it. I still have not come across either yet, so it is not an issue at this time.

    I would agree with TALSCTSV, Jon. You might be better off not getting too specific (i.e. Viper) with your sub-forum names.

    Manufacturer's are now moving to sealed models. The hobby is getting more boring to me IMO. Recently Kyosho gone into sealed craps. I just hope the remaining stays with metal die casts with opening parts :/

    I apologize for my comment, I kinda blurted it out without trying to word it differently/gently, but I hope you know what my frustration with the resin trend is. It's ruining the hobby for me.

    Well maybe because some people like the design? And maybe the design is more important when its on display and not everyone has time to pick them up and open shit up?? I have both in my collection including a Maserati chassis with no body at all. Diecast reveals engine details, resin gives better paint and finer body details. Each have their advantages, your comment fails

    I guess I'm the odd man out- I like it because it's different. See also my love for the Espada, Urraco, etc. ;-)

    Just saw the 1/14 Rastar Laferrari and boy am I stunned by its details. Tho just for a RC, the details are much better than Hot Wheels Foundation/Heritage models IMHO. It costs only $56.

    Yep confirmed. I believe they purposely delayed the release for a reason god knows why,they should already be out by now and if not why you think they released the 1/43 already but not the 1/18.

    See what happens when you try to build a car with three powerplants!! The 991 has had issues as well... c mon Germany get it together, German recalls are unheardof.

    I got a feeling the new Audi R8's from Kyosho are cancelled. They have completey gone silent over this car and it vanished off the catalog for '13 & '14

    What's the point of getting a model of the R8 Plus? All the enhancements are internal. It looks no different than a standard R8 with GT wheels...

    The Plus has, GT wheels, new front and rear lights, exhausts from GT, New wing mirrors, GT front and rear grills and was planned to be released in Sepang Matte Blue, I think it's worth buying the Plus if it ever gets released.

    I get Alex's point, but I was looking forward to the Plus because I would have liked an R8 in Sepang Matte Blue. Meanwhile, Kyosho is still releasing BMW models, but not even the most popular Bimmers. I can't figure out what's going on with that company these days. They used to be one of my favorite manufacturers.

    I'm looking forward to those as well, especially LaFerrari. I also hope we'll see a nice diecast 918 Spyder sooner rather than later. If Minichamps is the only choice for diecasts, I hope it's better than other recent Porsches that they have released.

    Their rendition of the 918 prototype was mediocre at best.

    I did not expect Minichamps to make both the 918 and P1 in resin. Everybody now seems to be making resins already ._.

    Smokey, they are way to expensive. No one would be able to afford to fly. Plus, countermeasures alone will not save a large slow plane like that.
