Joe Handley Posted August 24, 2009 Posted August 24, 2009 Real, but I think the windshield and rims may have some kind of touch up work done to them.
Bill Eh? Posted August 25, 2009 Posted August 25, 2009 I'd say real. Usually windshield surrounds aren't painted black where the rearview mirror is attached. Most models I see, have the surround portion painted evenly all the way across the top edge. Bill Eh?
envious8420 Posted August 25, 2009 Posted August 25, 2009 Real, but I think the windshield and rims may have some kind of touch up work done to them. i have to agree, the wheels sure dont match the light reflection. thats for sure.
Pete J. Posted August 25, 2009 Posted August 25, 2009 I'm going against the grain on this one, and saying model. A lot of little clues for me. #1 is a right hand drive. Not real common in a Ferrari. Hints of a model from Japan. #2 they clear coated over the Rampant Cavalino on the fender. Also some of the creases in the body work look like they got too much clear in them. Got to say though, the reflections in the light look pretty real.
Ajski Posted August 25, 2009 Posted August 25, 2009 Definitely a model. The blackout around the windshield looks to wide and the struts for the side mirrors are to long for a 1:1 599. Ski

horsepower Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 Real or model? The answer FRIDAY! I have to go real on this one, I don't think it is that easy to put carbon fiber decals inside the brake cooling ducts, so it's REAL
horsepower Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 I gotta say Harry, you got quite a few with the flipped negative on this one, it makes it appear as though it's a right hand drive. & those that thought the side glass is black where the mirror is attached are wrong, it's not the glass, it's a small triangular panel at the front of the glass that the mirror is mounted to.
Zoom Zoom Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 I gotta say Harry, you got quite a few with the flipped negative on this one, it makes it appear as though it's a right hand drive. & those that thought the side glass is black where the mirror is attached are wrong, it's not the glass, it's a small triangular panel at the front of the glass that the mirror is mounted to. Flipped negative? Nope! Did you see the license tag on the front bumper? It reads properly. Ferrari makes RHD cars for Asia and the UK markets. Nobody mentioned the triangular black base for the mirror, they mentioned they thought the mirror struts were too long and that the black masking inside the windshield (all around the perimeter, also blocks the base of the rear view mirror) looked too wide. Anyway, there are some correct answers that some have found, and some incorrect answers. Last week started very strong for "real", and then the results flipped, with more people voting "model". I was wondering if that might happen this week. More have voted "model" as the week has gone by, but the majority think it's real.
Harry P. Posted August 28, 2009 Author Posted August 28, 2009 The image is NOT flipped. Look at the logo on the grille! It's a right-hand drive car. The Brits wouldn't buy it otherwise!
FujimiLover Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 The image is NOT flipped. Look at the logo on the grille! It's a right-hand drive car. The Brits wouldn't buy it otherwise! Is that a clue Harry?
Harry P. Posted August 28, 2009 Author Posted August 28, 2009 No, no clues. All I'm saying is that I didn't flip the image. Whether it's a real car or a model is up to you guys...
Southgate Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 I'm gonna say model. I almost went with real, but the tires seem to have some shine between the treads. Hmmm...This is a hard one! Dan
