Nice video, you've got a new subscriber! As a "openable model" fanatic, I decided to sell my Solido e46 in order to buy the new Norev version. I think I've done a good choice because, ok engine is not perfect as AA, but at least is present, and so is rear trunk. Another point is.... since when I bought solido's version back in 2022 I wasn't satisfied at all by the lines of the car....the front for example always looked to me as a fake e46, while the Norev in my opinion is more accurate and thus realistic. However, even if the darker lights of the Norev doesn't bother me at all (if I had a real m3 e46 I would probably turn them that way 😂) gotta admit that the absence of side turning signal is really strange for Norev standards....and is something that I've immediately noticed.
Thank you! Much appreciated. I agree that Norev's is overall better than the Solido's E46. And being full opening just makes it that much nicer. As of the headlight, in my "1:18 world mind", those looks like the aftermarket units. So it doesn't really bother me too much. Too bad about the missing Norev's side marker, but that's an easy fix.
I purchased the grey E46 M3 convertible from Ottomobile after initially not being satisfied with the inaccuracies of the Norev model (I'm a huge Norev fan). However compared to Solido (not fully opening, cheap) and AutoArt (very good detail as always, expensive but fully opening), the Norev seemed the best value; but I purchased in metallic yellow.
Thanks for the video!! I do have 2 solidos, the laguna seca and csl and planing to buy the ones from norev. Do you think are much better and is ti worth it? The idea is to sell the solidos. And how did you paing the front grill?
Overall I think the Norev is better than Solido, but the headlight details on the Norev bothered a lot of people (I can live with it). I removed the grilles (front and side) from the car by disassembling the car and pushed it from behind. Painted it using Tamiya spray can, and reinstall.
Like the diorama what do you use for the tarmac or road surface ? It looks great very realistic
Thanks! Just table top sprayed with black textured Rust-Oleum paint

Thanks!!! Yes, I have to see it in person to see how bad or if can fix it
@STMODELCARS What color are you using for the grilles?
Great Video,i need one ,i bought 3 new 1/18 this week a Pagani Cinque motor max a Chevy SSR by Maisto and a Corvette C6 by maisto ,
Thank you! The Maisto’s SSR is pretty cool !
Enjoy your videos! But I wish you would do more 1/64 scale.The 1/18 scale is just way to expensive.
Thank you! I’m trying to mix it up between 1:18 and 1:64 😊
