  Screw Hotwheels. I justs started and they bloody have to TEMPT me with the F430 Scu.
  
  Are there any other, err, cheaper alternatives?

  Take a normal HW F430 and paint the stripes on,the wheels grey,add some mods to the bumper and you have a Scuderia I'm planning to do that

  Lol.. those pics are much better.. at least can see that HW elite detailing still hasn't reached the same level as AA and Kyosho... engine details aren't very good... front grilles look weird... and the exhuasts look like they're blocked too...

  LOL.
  
  Usually for those 'blocked' exhausts, i just take a fine-tipped permanent marker and color them black.

  What?! You call that "Elite". Omg.. I am happy that I am not purchasing HW anymore. I can't be satisfied with bare black interiors and black engine! No detailing at all man..
  
  But of course, the exterior has improved and is definitely a good buy for beginner if price is 60ish..
  
  Lets do a comparison:

  Notice something weird? How come the Elite version has silver rims instead of gun metal? Hmmm... Such a stupid mistake by HW? Is that possible?!

  Haha no prob.. Dealer edition? Is that by HW as well? U mean Super Elite? Is Super Elite worth its money? Because it costs almost as much as a BBR (if not more in some cases!) Hmmm...

  Personally, u can try to hunt for some super elite pics.
  when i 1st saw them, the details was so good that it does not look like hotwheel...
  but i do have to agreed that the price is very very scary...definately not worth to buy unless u r a ferrari freak
