Yours for $54.99 - see it on Exoticar.com, product 74841 -I've been buying from Exoticar for years, and they're great to deal with.

The company that makes the model, Autoart, is the best in the business. Their cars cost 2 or 3 times what Hot Wheels cars cost on the same scale, but they're 10x better in the details. I'm getting one of them ASAP. Most Autoart models go for upwards of $90, so this one is relatively a good deal.

Hey, if your looking at buying any of these, you should go to my Found thread, because I found 2 of them that are only $25 each.

Yes, that's correct.
I have more than 6 years experience to collect die-cast cars and own a lot of them.
Autoart is one of the best quality provider of die-cast models in the world.

Enjoy your collectives!

A friend bought me a 1/43 Autoart MINI. The detail is amazing...every interior detail are painted silver, numbers on the speedo, perfect proportions...etc. I'm not big into diecast models--but I can't imagine any more detail than this model has!

Not the same, Autoart detail of the cooper s is by far better than the Kyosho, which is who made the models in your thread. They, (Autoart) actually got the shape of the hood right where as the Kyosho, just re worked the regular cooper model which they had (a more sloped hood, cooper s owners you know what I'm talking about.)
