If you're talking Viper models, you might wanna talk to Dennis (a member of the Germany VCA). He is trying to sell a beautifully detailed-by-hand Viper model in scale 1:18, dunno if he still has it but I'd give it a try :2tu:

Andrew -

check this site out http://diecasts.com/

I know Burago makes nice 1/18 scale cars. Maisto makes them as well but the quality isn't as good.

Try a search through Yahoo as well under Burago or BBurago (sp?)

Hope this helps...

LMAO :smirk: ... you can get best-of-the-best deals on AutoArt Viper models through Ebay:

Ebay home page

Don't go for ****** low quality Burago when you can have dirt-cheap deals like you can find on Ebay with AutoArt for only a few bucks more, one of the finest die-cast car makers :2tu:

InjectTheVenom, if you can show me a street version of a gen1 or gen2 viper that was made by autoart, I will gladly go out and buy it. However, for someone who has many of the racing versions but also wants to collect street versions, the only way to go is either Bburago or Maisto. IMHO, the Maisto GTS Coupes are a little more detailed than the Bburago, this is mostly because the wheels actually have sneaky Pete centers and a more realistic looking engine, however Maisto does not make an RT/10 model so Bburago is the only choice there.

Well, afterall I think the Maisto model indeed has more details. For instance the original painted engine. BUT, the car doesn't really look as good as the Bburago car.

So, the best way is to put lots of details on the Bburago cars for me...

For instance...

GEN II engine
