Hey Brad, I have your car.
In 1:18 scale though, working on the 1:1 scale,
Just to let everyone know, I got my Maisto Roadster (metallic Grey, with Brick interrior) today, and I have to say, For a NON UT Model, the detail is amazing, They did a real good job on the engine, dash, pedals, and all. And if you look into the doors from above, you can see the rolled down windows sitting in the door.
So now I have
The Matchbox Silver German TT (x2)
The TT Canned Heat
The Maisto 1:18 grey Roadster (Special Edition)
The 1:10 Scale Lexan Body from HPI Racing.
An Amulet Red TT in GT2
All I am shooting for now is a 1:18 scale Black Coupe, and of course my 1:1, undecided on the color.
Thought I would just let you guys know about the quality in the detail, By the Way, the Maisto Dash isn't one big sticker, the stickers are behind small glass/plastic windows, and the dash is accurate, as far as I can tell. Too bad the vents don't work.
Sorry I missed Wednesday, all for now,

Re: Hey Brad, I have your car.
Sorry I missed you. We could have used the back-up (vocals). Denny and I did a couple of duets on voice chat. We did most of "I Got You Babe", and attempted "Mockingbird". We also tried "Don't Go Breaking my Heart", but Kiki Dee (aka Denny) couldn't remember the words. Needless to say, it wasn't pretty, as Cliff and TP can aTTest to.
I certainly like the price of the Maisto better, and the trunk is about the same size as my real roadster's! I've already got my placed filled-up with TT crap, but maybe I can find room for one little Maisto roadster!<p><img src="http://home.san.rr.com/winefinds/1.jpg" border="0">

I agree about the Maisto roadster model...
I picked it up at Toy's R Us (I think it's on their web site too) and for $17, the detail is amazing! It's got shocks, the wheels turn w/the steering wheel, every door opens... Now I feel like I can say I own a coupe AND a roadster!
The Revell models can't be any better than this, and they're at least 3x as expensive! Great!
BTW, does Maisto make a coupe? Haven't seen one but I'd love to have a matching set...<p><a href="http://registry.audiworld.com/audi/registry/details.asp?car=4626"><img src="http://homepage.mac.com/galaxian/.Pictures/mmttsig.jpg" alt="Click here for my registry entry." border=0></a>

My TTR Maisto sits atop my computer monitor...
and there is also a desktop of it on my system. The real thing is on the other side of the east wall of my office in the garage. Never far away from me in heart and thought. ;-)
