Hello Everyone!

I am very interested in buying either a Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera 1/18th Scale or a Reventon 1/18th Scale.

I have been looking around have have found that the AutoArt models look VERY good which are about $115. Yet i have also seen some nice ones by Maisto which are about $70, does any one here now what difference there is? (Visually i can see that the AutoArt is more detailed but is it worth the extra $45

Here are some pics of the AutoArt Lamborghini Reventon.

One more thing does any one think that i should wait for a Lamborghini Murcielago LP670-4 SV model if this comes out.....

 

Maisto does not even come close to comparing to AutoArt. Incorrect size, proportions, wheel offsets, cheap looking bits, they're just 45$ Wal Mart models.

Some will probably disagree with me, but I find AutoArt to be comparable to 300$ models. At 100$ (give or take) they are a bargain and superb quality.

Heck I forked out a couple hundred bucks for a 1:12 Murcielago from AutoArt and find it totally worth it.

 

Autoart is the best in the biz by far. This is coming from someone who has over 60 1/18th diecast cars (25 Porsches).

I know, its an addiction. I've admitted it and that's the first step!

 

Look at the detail down to the CF in the engine compartment. I'm ordering a black SL model!

 

In that range of models, Autoart is WAAAY better than Maisto in terms of proportion to scale and detail and for the price you can't go wrong~In the somewhat same category and price range, also try Tamiya and Kyosho because even those are better than Maisto~ I have been collecting scaled models for quite some time now and have some super detailed BBR's, custom hand built models and other Italian brands of the 1/43 scale models and those are SUPER detailed~

 

I got one too, but my dad smashed it 3days ago because I decided not to take a bath....
Here some pic of mines, before it's broken.

 

Autoart is definately the way to go if you have the extra money to spend. I personally have the 1/18th Superleggera in Gray and Yellow from Maisto, and for the price I paid they are definately decent models. I got mine for $14.99 each at Costco last Christmas season and I'm sure they will have them again this year.
For my favorite cars I would by Autoart though
