  I think Autoart bigger scale models are as good as Minichamps's smaller scale ones. Get the idea?

  cos i was deciding which one one to get and both are the same model...BMW M3 GTR...end up i got the minichamps one cos the autoart one is just a no-decal M3 GTR wheras the minichamps one had the carbon fober roof and the rims which i have seen on the LM car....and also the weight of this car is much heavier than the autoart counterpart....
  
  
  
  next car on the list...crap I'm nt sure man....Diablo GTR,Corvette C6R or the Audi sport quattro Rally car with race decals??

  Autoart and minichamps are almost the same quality IMO. Autoart makes a lot of road cars but minichamps dont. I prefer autoart to minichamps.

  Yes. u can even see the amazing carbon fibre on the roof of that M6.. just so real..
  Kyosho is on the same level as autoart.

  Well, personally I think both are quite gd but if space or cash is not a concern for you then I think Autoart shd be ur final choice & vice-versa

  minichamps n autoart are about the same standard, but IMO i think minichamps is slightly better in 1:18 scale.. and some of the models are heavier than those made by autoart.

  F*cking nice...what colour is that...
• LH83

  It's a colour called anthracyte... I was choosing between black, silver and anthracyte... I feel it's like a cross between the silver and black... quite nice... can see some small silver flakes in the paint...
