Stan,

I have the 1/18th scale model of CSX2000 that I got from the Danbury Mint with a nice display case for $184 dollars. I have several really great die casts but this is by far the best in detailing. Under the hood the valve covers have the old hand painted 260-Xp-1 on them. The gas cap opens as does the trunk and you can take the spare tire out and mount it. All aluminum body with working suspension. All wiring under the hood is just as it was in the real one and not neately packed away.
I think this is really the best Cobra model by far that I have and I have the set of 6 Daytona Coupes from EXOTO along with the polished test car they sent anyone who got the whole set. Their detailing is very accurate right down to the bungee cords holding the spare tire in the back just under the lift up rear window. I looked at the peweter model and just thought it was to much money and really wasn't any better than some I have.
