Message Board - Scale18 1/18 Scale Diecast Model Cars, Since 1997

instead. I was disappointed that CMC never made a red 250TR with a race livery and that was one car I wanted in 1/18 so I bought the Tecno pictured below.

What I like about it:
It has a race livery that appealed to me since I'm a fan of the Targa Florio.
The shape seemed to be somewhat accurate to my eyes.
Excellent paint.

What I wasn't that excited about:
No opening parts.
It's so light that it feels almost weightless.
The steering wheel looks a bit thick to me and its light brown color with no grain makes it look more like foam or rubber than wood. I may paint it dark glossy brown like the CMC version.

I'm still glad I purchased it though.
