nope. Saw a lot of Amalgams in person and was kind of shocked the seats weren't leather on any of them.

Really?! Wow that steering wheel appears to be real, but the seats look terrible, but I thought maybe it iss just really smooth and fresh leather. For 10 grand they should probably be including that feature, especially in 1/8 scale, it is plenty big enough to work with that material.

The model that Ferrari store sold me is probably a display model where it has a loose bottom panel, missing headlamp cleaning jet, missing horn logo on steering wheel , stained mirror etc

Fabulous collection, but there is something went wrong I found on more than one d1/8 Amalgam, the side mirror's angle has changed, it might be caused by the material resin...

Not sure what you mean. Did you mean you own a few and their mirror's shape or angle has changed over time?

No I don't have one yet, I do collect resin laferraris from BBR and MR, which are much more affordable than yours, even the 1/12 Amalgam I aim to buy in the near future in case I can find one in much cheaper. What I meant by the side mirror angle was based on the picture you posted below, you can find that the angle of the side mirror is not as correct as it was once built. I guess this could be caused by the changing of temperature or some other facts, resin is not as stable as metal. plus I found that you use sport light to help display the model, it might raise the temp, up to the type of the bulb.

similar situation actually happened to another 1:8 LaFerrari in one of videos of Jay Leno's garage: https://www.youtube....h?v=Oct-Oc4uJhE

but still, the model looks amazing.
