A BMW E30 M3 is always something. This icon of the German brand dates back to the end of the 80s; a time when a wide kit and a bit more horsepower were enough to make a sedan the most attractive car on the market! And let’s admit it: a blue BMW always has its little effect!

AC COBRA 427 | 1:18 SCALE

Facing off against the much heavier Corvettes, the light Cobra raced through the American states in its quest for glory.

The German wiseman began packing heat, becoming aggressive and even impressive with its huge adjustable spoiler that seemed to have been nicked from a フェラーリ F40. It adopted 17-inch wheels, fender flares, a front spoiler and a streamlined flat bottom to obtain an excellent air penetration coefficient of 0.30.

ALFA ROMEO GTV6 | 1:18 SCALE

‘Cuore sportivo’: the promise is in the slogan of the brand. Alfa Romeo is sport and emotion, and in the year 1984 it was necessary to replace the famous GT Bertone and Alfetta GT coupés.

Today still, this coupe represents for many the culmination of the sporting history of the Italian brand.
