Looking good! Got one on pre-order to replace the Otto Gt Spirit sealed model.
I am a really a big fan of the RS and other Hot-Hatches but I cant understand why they made the RS badge silver and black… It should be silver and blue. I hope Autoart will more Hot-Hatches in the future!
If previous photos are to be believed, the grey is closer to “Magnetic Grey” than “Stealth Grey”. AA are getting really sloppy with details, I don’t know what’s going on there lately. The colour name they claim for their orange Vulcan looks wrong too (looks like Cinnabar rather than Madagascar), and the McLaren 570GT has its hatch open on the wrong side. When you’re charging so much for your models, that sort of thing should be a given.
How much does it cost?
$271 CND is the suggested retail.
Missing the boost, oil temp and oil pressure dials from above the centre console…
That’s a HUGE miss!
Dear Sir / Madam, my name is Graham, I would like to purchase a resin model by auto art of a 72953 Ford Focus RS MK3 Nitrious Blue.1.18. Scale. Please, Thank you.
Autoart is a complete joke these days. Last mode I got from them was the Zonda Revolution, the pinnacle. Now they make these cheapo looking plastic models with major details missing, poor paint quality and expect us to pay prices approaching high end resin prices? Nah.
There is no excuse for missing the dails… As for paint and overall execution, these later composite examples are quite good – far better than the early releases. Pricing cannot be compared to models of 5-10 years back.
Ridiculous price really…
