Yes. this model by Bburago. sparked my old flame of collecting 1:18 ferrari models. I got this model 550 Maranello black, last october, and i really liked the details and work puted on this. Since than, i purchased the F50. 250LM / by Bburago, the Enzo, 365 GTS/4 spyder and many others. basically before i had 5 cars in my collection now i have 15. All ferraris ':D .. credit to your channel for detailed reviews. Thanks.
The problem is, the scale 1/24 is made by the new chinese owner, the may cheong group. The 1/18 scale is from the 90's when burago was still an italian group.
I have 3 1/18 model cars. First one is the Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera , Second is the Lamborghini Centenario, Last is the Audi R8 v10 plus Quattro
Nice vid, nice story...I copped mine in 1998...about $12.50 or 14-15 Euro...Didn't really notice the detail, only opened the engine along with watching your video. Still never took it out off the screws. 1/18 is the way to go !!
If you can't comply with a little scatch, please, please don't use a 'sharpy' to modify your models! Remember that it's better to execute any detail at the right scale. That line on the headlights is so thin on the real model, it was a good choice from burago to ignore it. Same for panel gaps and everything. I'd rather have a detail well executed than have the right detail wrong. For instance if the company goes for enboss lettering, may it goes with what they do best; needeth it to be imbossed or a seperate part, we should not care that much: what matters is execution. For instance they made the wrong decision with the ferrari crest in the back. Should have kept the crest imbossed with a decal only. Instead you get some kind of crappy framed chrome plastic label insert. Even they, do sharpy-like mistakes in attenmpt to "add details".
Hi, I hope your are still interested in getting a new front window for your 550 Maranello ? Here my tip: Write a letter ( looks better then an email) direct to Bburago in Italy. Tell them that your are a Ferrari- Fan that had a mishap. They will send you a new one. Why should it work will you ask? I tried it, had the problem with a broken rear window on my F 40. Had to wait about 6 weeks and got a new one. Very well packed with the advice CAUTION GLASS! Greetings and best wishes !
In 1/24 they still did some good ones like the F12 Berlinetta. I think that was in 2015 or 2016. Then, 2017 onward, they started sealing the hoods and all 1/24 Ferraris released since then only have opening doors, which is sad.

It's one of their crappy models I'd agree.

you can try using rubbing compound to remove the scratches

Hi. Is it still works? Do you have insta? Could send me an example plss
The 1:24 is the chinese version... the best bburago will always be the italian production one...

@@ImperialDiecast bburago closed in 2005
is the wheel in the trunk removable
You could remove the whole model from the the spare tire if you want ;-)
6:24 the black trim around the headlamps is not accurate to the real car. This model has the correctly modeled headlamps.
