Sounds like party-time to me!!!!! Any timing announcments on that? I'd love to get another '82 CE and '61 Mako! I was really kind of hoping for an '82 in solid colors, like black or something.

They are all new part numbers. The C5Rs are new (nobody has 2002s yet), Ertl has 50ths out, but not AUTOart, the Mako, 53 & 59 are completely new. I think the 82 is mislabeled as a CE, I think it might be a standard issue 82 in silver. I don't know what the silver 78 is. The Red 59 Stingray may be a slight mislabel too. They already did the Stingray racer in red under a different number, so maybe this is the red SR2 racer? That would be cool.

With respect to the C5-R's, I have to say that I am a bit disappointed. I thought that the 2001 Petit Lemans "flag" livery would have been a no-brainer. Now, they are producing two new cars that will be almost indistinguishable from my other 2001 C5-R's. No reason to purchase for me :nonod:

I think he's out of England. I've never really checked out the site for purchases, but he usually has good information on upcoming stuff. Europe seems to get things before we do, so he'll post pics of cars that aren't out yet here.

Well, I hope they keep the rear wing accurate now and straighten it out. I don't want to see another one of those humpback wings. Most other stuff is great on those cars.....DO THE STARS AND STRIPES "PETITE LEMANS"!! :steering:
