Joe Handley Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 For $40k, I’d have expected the hood ornament to hide just like the real thing too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamsuperdan Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 I don't understand why she's so popular. As for the model Rolls. Meh. I mean, it's pretty cool, but... I don't get it either. Maybe it's just one of those days where I'm underwhelmed with everything. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaronw Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 If you can afford an SUV that starts at $350,000, then buying a $40,000 replica is probably an after thought, like most of us buying a nice office chair or fancy swing arm amp for the model bench.

StevenGuthmiller Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 I guess it’s a nice “diecast”, but then again, it should be for 40 G’s. I would have been more impressed, or at least more interested, if was a ‘57 Chevy. 😁 Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr moto Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 Sorry, that one's a reject. Check out the sloppy fit on the right side doors. I would expect better on a low price Japanese car and I could buy a 1:1 for less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackSheep214 Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 And am I suppose to be impressed? Obviously blonde is. *eye roll* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slusher Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 if you own a Rolls Royce why would you spend 40,000 on a toy 🧸. That would feed a lot of people… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a certain element get their way, the wealthy who MADE their own money will be taxed out of existence. There's a type of personality who, when asked if they'd prefer to live in a society where SOME people were rich but nobody ever starved, or in a society where EVERYONE was so poor they had to eat bugs, they choose the latter in the name of "equity". These people are called "useful idiots". Their overlords, on the other hand, will still have the Rollers and champagne and caviar and private jets. They just won't have actually EARNED any of it.

Earl Marischal Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 That a company with a glorious history should be reduced to marketing gimmicks such as this… Never heard of the 1:1 Barbie before. steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stitchdup Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 I guess if your promo is branded rolls royce it'll have a price to match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

89AKurt Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Reminds me of the Fabergé eggs that royalty had craftsmen produce. Yea it's impressive, but it's like having a toy you can't play with. I would like to have some of the skills to create a better model, but look how many of those eggs are no longer existing. Final opinion, if you can afford the real deal, what's the point of having a model of it? My two cents (now $2, don't get me going). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Bacon Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 (edited) I think if you're serious about cars, or car models, and you had $40K to spend, then you'd be better off heading to Amalgam... You could have three or four of these for the money: https://www.amalgamcollection.com/collections/1-8-scale GT-40, 250SWB Moss Goodwood TT 61, E Type Series 1 and DB4GT Zagato or a gimmick-laden Cullinan? best, M.

Brian Austin Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 And people sometimes look at us funny for paying $100 for a model. 😛 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
