Random fact: Hot Wheels is the only brand currently licensed to produce 1:64 scale Ferraris, but Kyosho found a way around that by selling their small scale Ferraris in parts, including a tiny screwdriver to put them together:

Deal lord that would be tough to do with the sausages I call fingers.

Yeah, the way to go is to ditch the tiny screwdriver and use a regular one instead. There are other brands that do that and I'm always pulling mine apart and replacing/repainting parts and then putting them together.

Where do you find these? Model stores?

I guess... In the US, you should be able to find them in model and hobby stores, as well as online vendors like Milezone and Diecast Direct. Here in Brazil, they're generally not available, save for the Ayrton Senna Collection which is actually a country exclusive and is available in only a handful of toy stores, so I get mine from a few trusty sellers on eBay.

Just because of this post, I decided to buy a 458 Spider today.
