Nice QC, I just ordered the Bugatti, I like the Mercedes in the background, harder to find than hens teeth.

Thanks Chappy! Congrats on finding the Bugatti. Yup, the Mercedes is hard to find and fetches silly prices (some versions more than others) but it's a good looking model with great historical significance so I kinda get it. As a whole, these car are great fun to tune and race. Cartrix could have done the racers among us a favor and spent more time on quality control/model development and less on the fancy tin can/display/cloth. The original prices for these cars was nuts! Now they can be had for what I consider to be a reasonable sum given the uniqueness of the models and there scarcity.

Mine have all been remotored (14k) and given the requisite new pinion. Some have urethane rears and some have rubber. Simple tuning and off I go!

I will probably acquire the Ferrari Squalo at some point to finish my collection.

Wow that is a great find on the Bugatti and the lotus is simply gorgeous to me good score you have a good collection of the cartrix.
Thanks for sharing

Thanks "Racer"! Your right, the Lotus is a great model. I'm partial to Ferraris' but the Gordini and Bugatti, might be the nicest offerings Cartrix has produced so far.
