    Glad to see they’re shoving more variants through the shoot, although I hope they make a few with different types of factory wheels. Keep it up DS!

    will be resins just as with their other C7 models yes?

      what the big deal , the real car body made from composite as well and nobody complain about it.

      • Miles1977 says:

        Ok but the real motor doesn’t look like a piece of cheap plastic !

        And the price for composite models is too high !

        • Miles1977 says:

          And for 130 €, Top Speed will make the same model in resin. So yes, no openings but 70 € cheaper…

          I’m very disappointed by Autoart, they presented the composite as a revolution but, for me, it’s a regression (less quality and détails for higher price)

    It will be composite models I guess (no reason to change from the other C7 models produced).

    Never any complaints when anybody else comes out with a no openings resin model… For me AA is still the ONLY game in town for the C7 Vette. Even if the closed resin is 100$ cheaper than the AutoArt model I’m still getting the AutoArt. BBR came out with a sealed and very static resin Z06… At over 400$ a pop, i’ll pass go, collect 200$ and go to the AutoArt Z06 and now I’ll even get a couple Grand Sports too. Nobody else makes them, yet.

      Yes indeed, many collectors are targeting Autoart these days and yes, they are kind of a shade of former glory, but comparing to current situation on the market, price vs what you get for it, they are still on top, so I dont understand these neverending cries a bit…

      • Marek says:

        What bothers me more, is for examle, that C7 racing Vettes have not correct graphics, which is really a stupid mistake….
