this thing has the WORKS! magnificantly detailed motor, complete with wiring and battery stickers and the like. you even have tp push a button to open the hood!!!! GEEZ!

Yes thats an open glove compartment :P and yes, its right hand drive lol

and get this, thats a WORKING differential u see there! the rear wheels rotate in unison and when u move them, u also can see the driveshaft turn!!!!

and now, my numero dos favorite: '00 cobra R (actually its tied with my '71 mach... but uve seen that one already :P )



this next one is also very special to me. a nice cherry 64 1'2 Convertible. man oh man..

D, i dont need a better camera, thats the one thats integrated into my camcorder, so w/e
anyhow the falcon is made by some company called Biante Premium. there logo is a red silhouette of australia so, i imagine its an australian company. and yes, the detail is magnificent
in person, if u have good eyesite, u can read the tach/speedometer and even the navigation screen! heck u kno that red button on the seat belt release? its there, even on the REAR seats (yes the rear doors open too) its one of 3000, so god knows if ull have any luck finding one tho. my aunbt who gave it to me (she was visiting from NZ) sed they picked it up AT an aussie ford dealership.
this is my favorite late model car out there! (well the ute version lol, but still) good luck in finding one tho, and if u come across the utes, or other colors, let me know! hehe, i need a red/orange ute XR6...
also, steve, the R is a maisto. since urs is a maisto too, have u noticed that the front fascia and even the spolier dont match the rest of the car since they're plastic? ive noticed that on mine...
