FIRST LOOK: BBR Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano 2006 • DiecastSociety.com |
Wheels look so much better than on the Hotwheels elite one.
Agreed on the wheels, however, that HWE was purchased for $65 CND and it provides access to the internal bits too. Bring back HWE!
Of course they did not choose to make it a manual which makes it utterly pointless to buy this considering the Hot Wheels elite is also an automatic and a much better model considering it opens made out of diecast and significantly cheaper. Wasted opportunity here, had they made it a manual I probably would have bought one, considering a manual 599 Ferrari is basically the last manual Ferrari there is on the market.
Very much agree about the relevance of the 599 as the last V12 Ferrari to be offered with a manual. All in all still a good model, for a resin, which is not a plus, at least for me. By the way the old Elite 599GTB looks a lot better with just different wheels. That’s what I did on mine and then went a bit further by converting it to manual, with the possibility to actually move the gear lever through the gated gear selector, plus some more modifications.
This is just the first photo available. There are 7 automatics and 7 manuals to choose from on their website.
