They did it. They fucking did it. And now, !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! is not worthy to collect anymore.

But I still see some redeeming angles and factors, which I've indicated with a shot of the real car. The raised bit is the all-carbon front splitter.

It also looks just fine side-on.

Just don't look at it in front.

Oh, and like what I said on the C7.R casting, just throw it away to me !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! if you don't want it.

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

Or maybe you do want it? Also, please cross-post this to Live and Let Diecast.

Yes, it's butt-ugly.

A little bit of custom work and I think it will be just fine and the same goes for the C-7 corvette to. I would just remove the front bumper and push it down till its more horizontal and then fill in the section between the green and newly pushed down bumper.

I think I see why they did it, it's so it works with hotwheels tracks.

Track ready spells doom for low chins in Hot Wheels land. I doubt it's the designers' wish to do this, but Hot Wheels are first and foremost a kids toy meant for orange track so no choice, really. But like carnage717 said, a bit of custom work would go a long way and I definitely plan on doing so to several of these. And the C7.R.

Also, do you have authorship on LaLD, and if not, would you like it?

I would have wanted to have one, but I don't really collect. Not like I don't wanna, but I only buy about 3-5 models a year (low-ass budget).

There is no minimum bud! As long as you rnjoy cars of all scales you are good. I added you just in case, so 3-5 times a year you can show us what you got!
