anyone have the GTR order package number?

I'm thinking abou ordering that if I ever get an M3 :bigpimp:

 

[The HACK]

You organizing a group buy on this Vince?

Does it come in 1/18th scale? I'd love to get one if it's within $50 (my budget for scaled models).

 

[DaveN323i]

Yes, Vince, organize a group buy (maybe get them at a huge discount in Singapore?)

Unlike the Hack, I don't have a price limit, specially if it is 1:18.

 

[geomax]

Count me in - I'd love to get that model!!

 

[Wingboot]

Me too. That looks like a good one to start my collection.

btw - I've seen a car like this (for real) on TV, except that it is entirely red. Is a model of available in the red version?

The red ones are the PTG racing cars (BMW NA) The White and blue are Schnitzer (BMW AG)

UPDATE!

And so I dropped by the local BMW dealer this morning for the E38 service appt and inevitably took my questions to the parts department.

The part numbers for the ALMS 1/43 are:

82 42 0 139 180 ALMS #43
82 42 0 139 179 ALMS #42

However, they are NOT available in Singapore yet. And I doubt they are available in US either. The pictures were sent to me via Yahoo scale43diecast club. These models can be found on Ebay, but my advice is to hold back paying a high price on Ebay. Estimated MSRP is US$20 to US$28. Made by Minichamps.



Hope this helps.

Also, read my new post on retrofitting OBD!

Yup, this is the one:

OOPS, Nope that ain't the PTG car. That's a speedvision car (6-cyl) -vs- an ALMS car

Thanks Vince! :thumb:

 

[Sean]

NOW THIS....

IS a PTG car!!!!!

 

[geomax]

Vince - found a pic of the #42 car.

Word from the my dealer is that these models are not yet available here in the States - but can be ordered. Price they qouted me is $41.00 (I'm sure the BMWCCA discount applies?). Still waiting to hear back from some other sources though...

 

[Mr Paddle.Shift]

Gup...$41?? I have some contacts in UK for these miniatures. Hopefully they have better prices... Thanks for the update!

[DaveN323i]

Talked to Dan at Cutters and he does not have it in his computer system. From my experience, Dan usually beats the CCA discount.

I guess we'll have to wait until the U.S. parts network is updated

 

[Mr Paddle.Shift]

Ahh...

Out of my 100 over BMW models, 90% of them were ordered from Europe. From my experience, these new models will take at least 3 months to reach here.

I do hope that the local dealer will get some before I return for LA. Then maybe grab a couple for some of you..
