IXO vs SPARK Models Which one's the BEST? Porsche 911 RSR in 1/18 scale

I'm doing the ultimate comparison between IXO Models and Spark to see if the Porsche 911 RSR from IXO Model is capable of competing with the much more expensive 911 RSR from Spark. This Porsche was the winner of the LMGTE 24hr. of LeMans in 2018

Totally agree. Depends on your budget. Same goes for sealed models vs full opening models.

Hey! These videos looks like they're real cars and garages. That's so cool!

[@homie-gtv322]

Good comparison. Thanks, amigo.

[@BFDdrives]

For a smaller budget the IXO is alright. If you want to have more and better detail than you've to pay the extra money on the Spark. So at the end it depends on what kind of collector you are ... like you mentioned at the end about how many IXO models you could get for the price of the Spark model.

Hey I was hoping u could help me out a bit , I have the opportunity to pick up a minichamps McLaren f1 gtr or a UT models mclaren f1 gtr. He wants $300 for the minicchamps and $200 for the UT model , this is in canada. Both are still in box. Was wondering if u could give me some info on which would probably be higher quality , thank you

[@LIFE_in_118_SCALE]

I would go for the minichamps because I have the UT Model one and I don't like it. The minichamps has more precise details.

[@nick4281]

@@LIFE_in_118_SCALE thank you for the reply, much appreciated

[@markzebr6463]

either one seems pricey to me Canada or US.

Hey Chris I’m John Dukes that collect diecast 1/18 can you build me something amazing please?

[@LIFE_in_118_SCALE]

If you look closely, you'll see that the mirrors on the IXO are different from the Spark... I've just noticed! 🧐

[@zanjaklic9466]

which ones are correct?

[@LIFE_in_118_SCALE]

The spark

[@Tom_Hadler]

The shape of the grille is also different. And I think there might be some subtle differences in shape. Presumably spark will be more accurate. Accurate proportion is the most important thing to me, even above detail level.
I only buy 1-43 scale, but I always prefer spark over ixo as a general rule, even at the extra cost.
I recently got a Saleen S7-R by spark, & I already had an IXO but never thought the shape was quite right. The spark nailed it there, & so is much more beautiful. But if you're not an expert, the IXO stands up pretty well, & is well detailed.
It depends on the specific car and model, sometimes better model makers do have a miss, or cheaper makers a hit.

[@fredlacroix6865]

ixo in 1/43 has comparable quality to spark at a much much lower price

[@motoalex3760]

They look the same unless you look closely tbh
