I have the 458 Italia in the stash that will be rossa corsa.  I plan on building the Ferrari 288 GTO someday that will be red.  I built one of their F1 cars that MUST be red.  As a Ferrari fan I always like the traditional racing red color.  However, I gotta say the Testarossa looks great in white.  Ironic because Testarossa means red head.  I think the cam covers are red.  

 

this is the miamie vice one.

Santa,

I have always been impressed with your model ship collection, and now I'm equally impressed with your car collection.  Keep the pictures coming, we really enjoy them.

On a side note, were the Minicraft kits from the same molds as the Entex?  I see many have what looks to be the same packagig.

And that was just one look without exploring the entire web. There are also numerous racers like Stock Cars, Dragsters, Funny Cars, Indy, and more if its competition cars your after. 

The there is a whole group of 1/16 cars in die-cast from Bburago, Polistil, Tonka, and others. 

With all this said, you have a really great collection in 1/16 as they are still sort of rare and most the time costly. Do you have more 1/16 still to build? If so what is your next one? Which one is your favorite?
