Rob & All: See the following site for a review of the car and the model. The text describing the early 300 cars probably is a little off, but SINCERE. The horn ring on the model looks stouter than the original! http://www.diecast.org/diecast98/html/asp/list_reviews/xq/ASP/id.1433/qx/reviewpix.htm I just wish someone would make a C-300 (C for "Coupe"???) this nice in proper shade of Platinum and greenish Solex glass!
