Diecast's: Minichamps Mercedes SLS(RED)

[Petrolhead]

I saw it at a Mercedes Benz showroom in Mumbai.I knew it was a big car but wasn't expecting it to be that HUGE!!
I know this is a pretty silly thing to say but I love looking at supercars in the metal.I spend all day looking at pictures of these machines so logic dictates that the real thing shouldn't take me by surprise.But they always always manage to blow the mind.So much stuff you don't realise about these cars until you see one right in front of you.Take the SLS AMG for example.I've always known that this car has a spectacularly long hood.But only when I saw the thing in the flesh did I realise just how long the bonnet really is.Park it next to an everyday family saloon such that their noses line up and you'll realise that the driver and passenger seats of the SLS actually are in line with the rear seats of whatever mid-size sedan you've got next to it!!

Nice pics Ravi Bhai.. Red really suits this car any time.
I have also personally seen a black one. The guy who owns this machine is also a proud owner of a black McLaren SLR. You can imagine the scenario when the two ultimate behemoth machines are parked next to each other.
Its like the duo of Phobos & Deimos...

Ravi bhai, I dont feel that there is not much difference between the Maisto & Minichamps rendition. Obviously due to the price you are paying for the Minichamps you will be getting carpeted floor, beautiful headlights and small cosmetic enhancements but otherwise Maisto has done a great job.

Ravi bhai, I guess you have one by Maisto too. So can we have pics both of them standing next to each other????? A sort of camparo shootout..
