Auto Art Comp Coupe

This is the only picture I have found so far, it came from the Nurnberg Toy fair. The only bad thing about this model is it is a sealed body which really sucks. I cant see paying 80 bucks for a model that does not have opening doors or hood.

Here is a link to more pics if anyone is interested.

The one pic isn't showing up. I browsed through your photobucket galler and damn there is some impressive stuff in there. I will likely pick a CC up and repaint it

They are going to offer three different colors, the white one the red one in the above pic and one of the cars that have been raced, which car is yet to be determined. Woodhouses would look cool as hell though.

I think they should do as many as they can it will bring down the production costs. As it stands right now they are going to do 3000 of one color and 6000 of the other two. I have no idea why Auto Art likes making their Vipers so rare.

I thought about PMUMs car and that would be another one I would like to see.

It seems the only Viper they made that nobody wants is the SRT-10. They can be found on ebay for $25 or less all the time.

I have one of each Oreca GTS-R except for the playstation one which I need to get once I have the cash to complete my collection.

I still want to find a cheap one that has been perhaps damaged so I can paint it flat black like the cutsomer delivery version was as I think that one is something they should have made.

The maroon one I painted is now with Smackie.

Which playstaion? Red or Blue the blue one can be found fairly cheap on ebay I think I picked mine up for $45 a few years ago. If you are looking for either Red car good luck.

Luckly I picked the #52 up for $50 about 4 years ago before the became rare as hell. I have seen them go for upwards of $150 before. Some of them are almost getting as bad as the UT Mclarens.

My bad I meant the blue one. I know the red ones are nearly impossible. I have the overall victory 24h rolex car which is pretty cool but I would like the lemans one as well.

I have a UT Gulf mclaren at home. It didn't make the trip with me to school.

I picked these two up last summer for $20 each at a local hobby shop. Sold themon ebay for $180 between the two of them.

$105 for the red and $75 for the silver. I will likely regret selling the red one.

Holy shit 180 for both, I didnt realize the early ones were pulling that much. The only early ones I have in 1/18 scale is the red gen I and the emerald green gen I.

I will have to start looking for the Gen I's now.

These two are really rare, the red/yellow 96 I believe is the rarest burago 1:18 car followed by the white/blue stripe white wheels 96 RT/10.
The silver ones are somewhat rare but all the other main color gen 1 RT/10's are cheap. I constantly get them off ebay for less than $10 with shipping.

Craig- All of those models look great. You do really nice work. I was thinking of doing the same thing with one of the AutoArt GTS-Rs, but am not sure I have the ability to do it correctly. How difficult would it be? Thanks!

The level of quality that the cars comes out at is probably 70% of the prep work you do.


I have not done an autoart car before and am a little hesitant to pull one apart seeing as how they are pretty pricy.... Sandblasting the plastic is tricky as well as painting it because it seems to always be a little "off" in shade compared to the metal parts for some reason even with a lot of primer. Sandblasting also seems to pit up the plastic somewhat and you can mess up the shape if you sandblast for too long in the same area.

If you can't sandblast the car you can use paint thinners but I don't know how well that would work on plastic parts.
