Rob, I always love your videos and you are the ultimate collector. But, I feel you were a bit "hard" on AutoArt, a company that has consistently made exceptionally fine models. The main feature being that wheels, steering, doors, hoods all function at a reasonable price as opposed to those "sealed" models that can't be rolled posed or displayed as anything but a static car, and you have to be independently wealthy to own!
I love my AutoArts and thank goodness they still make cars that you can open steer and roll! To me they are still the best. And you're still the best collector I know.......or wish I knew.
I can only review the model that I received, the paint is thin on some of the edges and the gloss carbon is wrong on this model, can't deny that. But as I said, overall the model is good, just not US$230 good.
I never understood why some collectors will say an AA model is good just because there's a resin version out there for double the price. You shouldn't compare this to another manufacturer to say if the model is actually good or not. The model can be bad even if there's an even worse resin version out there. Just because it's cheaper than a resin model doesn't mean it's actually good for its retail price. Rob's review is on point specially on the negative sides
I tend to lean towards AA and GT Spirit solely because the price of their models are easier to stomach over the higher end brands. Spending 450-500 USD on a model is way too much for me, and even more with the currency exchange.
These things are mostly mass produced, and there are bound to be a couple (hundred) cars that slip through the inspection process with flaws that tarnish the overall review of the model. I just wish they slowed down the number of cars they release and spend more time on going back to the basics
Agree that AUTOart should spend more time and make these models as good as the older AUTOart models, which were great, I have a lot of them. But as you know, I have the MR versions as well, and if you compare the two of them, the AUTOart falls well short, even if it does open.
Thanks for the honest review, was tempted to buy this exact AA model, but after seeing this video I'm going to skip this. It's just underwhelming in every aspect, left alone the only plus in getting a composite model which is opening features. But 250ish USD can buy a much better model.
Which brand would be better than AA's? I got thCepheus blue from AA and it feels so cheap and light! I would like to exchange it with a 'real' diecast version. Instead of a MR resin one, I'll pick a Maisto! lol Not very detailed but at least it's metal!
@@knightofsg no other option than Maisto if you're looking for a metal version in 1:18 at the moment! I ended up buying the yellow AA with a good discount, and I agree it's so light and feels cheap and flimsy. Also AA's plastic molded carbon fiber is just a joke.
Thanks for the unbiased review Rob! You have helped me in deciding whether or not to keep my MR Centenario roadster and in the end I chose to keep it. No need to buy an AA version of this car. AA has been using too much cheap looking plastic texture carbon fiber instead of decal. I appreciate your honest and in depth opinion. You rock! Keep them coming!
I remember seeing the Aventador roadster on AAs store for 218$ American dollars. But now, 230 for a plastic model....
True, the price of the new composite AUTOart models is rising a lot, and more expensive compared to the older diecast releases, which had better quality, better details, better packaging and even a COA.
ROBS MODEL CARS Guess the aa we know and love has changed to a money hungry business sadly. Many great companies have made this transition sadly such as EA( Electric Arts, video game company) Apple with their over priced phones, and much more. And I predict that we will have to learn to live with it
@@__AverageJoei like Lamborghini when i was child, these day i play asphalt 9( game apps). than i going to buy 2 lambor model cars
amazing model..the best colour for Centenario
Another great looking Lambo, keep um coming, thanks for sharing!....Bill
Thanks for pointing out details! This model is finally out..
Awesome review. I will probably buy the full carbon version!
Random. Same
I got one of these recently and watched this to see how to open the doors as it’s expensive to break and don’t move easily. At the start you show the “key” for the door but not use the key when opening the doors. Did you do something off camera to unlock the doors?
Just bagged this one. Same colour. Such a scandlously good deal I had to buy it! Prices going north on AA so fast I had to pull the trigger...
Congrats mate on your purchase
I have Maisto Exclusive one, and I am happy with that one. :)
fingerprints I have the Maisto one too, and I’m tempted to go for this one cause it looks slightly better. should I though?
@@devandrasimanjuntak1646 If you have the budget go for it, for me Maisto is "good enough" to not concider Autoart version. And Autoart version cost 4x than Maisto. Better to spend that king of money for Mclaren P1 GTR by Almost Real.
fingerprints ah, I see.... I’ve been hearing a lot about Almost Real. Is it that good?
Cause the shop that I go to never sells them. They usually sell AAs (new and old), and UT Models.
@@devandrasimanjuntak1646 Yes, Almost Real is like "new Autoart" right now. Autoart is not as good as they were before. Models are less detailed, and made of plastic (composite material). And P1 GTR is fully functional, meanwhile AA P1 GTR only doors can opened, and both model is cost almost the same.
You are lucky to have model car shop near to you, all my models is coming from other countries.
@@fingerprints2983 Problem is Almost Real released their new model at Snail Pace compared to Autoart 2-3 new models permonth.
Thanks for the honest review rob, im planning to buy this but I change my mind.
Nice car, good looking and interesting video :)
12:52 AA could have included hinges to the rear engine cover, I hate loose parts, tend to forget when I'm handling my models and if dropped the paint might chip off.
Omg how’d you get it from new ace!? I’m going there and hopefully getting a blu Cepheus one , newace is my fav
Great review as always Rob, do feel a little that opening models and resin, almost seem like different collectors markets now, and do think AA are only going to head downwards from this point.But..BBR and MR prices are also getting unreachable, so AA realise this I think.
They probably are different markets now in reality. High end resins model are way more detailed and better paint etc, some collectors think an AUTOart is better just because it opens. But as you know, my channel is all about high end models, so I have to compare this AUTOart model to the MR versions. I think that AA have cut a lot of corners, their models just are NOT as good as their older diecast models, that's a fact. But in reality, they will continue to fill the gap between Maisto and MR, I think that is their market.
Going to wait on the pagani bc
Soo what do you think?? Is it worrtied to buy it for USD$185 (retail price)
I planned to buy it.. and this is my first time.. las time i also look for Looksmart 1:12 Centenario..but the prize is so DAMN high! Around USD$1.000 (retail price). This is my first time to play cars model.. hope you can give me some advice.. thanks..
Overall it is a good model. Buy one if you like it.
Still a lovely model, but does it really matter if the paint might not be exact but you only look at one side in a show case and its very rare if your going to keep taking it out of the showcase.
Fantastic video Rob I can’t wait for you to hit 10k
Not far away now, and I will be giving away a high end resin model when I do. Stay tuned.
Great review. I've seen few "composite" Autoart models in person and they're a huge let down. I bought my last new autoart which is the plain white R390 fully opening diecast model. The R390 is a masterpiece and everything plastic after it is just a massive disappointment.
The R390 is one of AUTOart's best diecast models (I have the black test car) but the new composite models just aren't as good as the older diecast models. Shame!
I have the cepheas blue and I think it's better than the Mr collection at least auto art got the break lights right. Maybe you can do a comparison video if that's cool.
I have coupe and roadster MR with correct taillights. Even if the AA looks nice, the MR is way better imo. I'm still going to get an AA version but I can't agree with you that it's better than MR besides the opening parts
@UUU U resin models are not always better. I did a very detailed comparison of the Huracan Super Trofeo between AA vs LookSmart. The AA was miles ahead better. However, in this case, the MR Centenario is miles ahead better than AA imo
@UUU U in that case, I also have the Murcielago SV by MR and also AA. The AA is for sure miles ahead better as well, however that was one of the first MR models in 1/18 scale, they have improved a lot since then
@UUU U los autos de resina son una reverenda MIERDA, es una pena que las mierdas de resina hayan desplazado a los modelos diecast, cuando estos últimos representan más fielmente a un auto. Mientras las resinas sólo son "esculturas" del modelo en cuestión y son aburridas al no abrir nada. MUERAN LAS RESINAS!!!
I ordered The Bugatti Chiron by AutoArt 1:18
You can really play with these autoart models are far more fun and detailed than BBR or MR, those are expensive but you can't do anything with it.
Could you film a garage update please?
Good video, wait full carbon fiber to come
can you tell me is this plastic or metal ? thanks
This is plastic, all models from AUTOart are now plastic and unlimited
@@ROBSMODELCARS thank you for your response .
Is the mirror easy to break
Pretty sturdy, but knock them hard enough and they will break off
The only thing about these I don’t like is the dash sticker. Nice detail besides that though.
Si bien es cierto que los modelos de autoart ya son absurdamente caros y que sus detalles y controles de calidad son cada vez menores; aún siguen siendo la mejor alternativa para aquellos que JAMÁS compraremos una resina; y es que no se puede hablar de "accuracy" (exactitud), en un modelo que solo se puede ver y no habré absolutamente nada, incluso un maisto o un bburago tendrá más "acuraccy" que una resina que no es más que una escultura del auto en cuestión, mientras que un diecast es un modelo que se trata de apegar al modelo real. Una resina es bonita, bien terminada, bien detallada, pero jamás tendrá ese "feeling" de descubrimiento, de "aventura", de abrir los compartimentos y ver los interiores, el motor, etc. De ver como luce el auto con puertas abiertas, etc. Incluso en modelos diecast hay autos que abren relativamente poco y pueden resultar algo aburridos, mientras que hay reproducciones que abren todo, quemacocos, guantera, asientos incluso y son muy divertidas de observar. Creo que es claro que aquellos que están contentos con una resina son otra clase de coleccionistas que quienes no las aceptamos. Quienes están contentos solo con la apariencia exterior y quienes queremos ver más allá. Insisto, eso no objeta las deficiencias de los actuales autoart, pero no nos redirige a muchos coleccionistas al aburrido y muy caro mundo de las resinas.
I got mines in bright greenfrom the Maisto brand for 50$ usd. At a store named mind games .
haha u buy it in hk. i just want buy centenario, but no kyosho AA at all.
does rob suggest someone have AA roadster better than AA original car?
How autoart has just become underwhelming is a shame how it has gotten so lazy tells me the work ethic of the entire crew I never thought in a million years I would be giving autosrt bad reviews but honestly I think autoart had its peak and I think after that peak it took its steady decline I just hope it peaks again seriously I wasnt into autoart to see it go bad I just hope autoart brings back that old touch like only autoart can
I remember when aa use to cost 60 dollars
Underwhelming tbh. Was a huge fan of Autoart but this review just shows far Autoart have fallen off from a few years ago.
What the hell is that blue Ferrari F430 in the background, the wheels look weird :s
Hotwheels Elite Ferrari 430 Scuderia with gun metal colored wheels. Very rare color.
Plastic molded carbon fiber is the biggest flaws on almost every AA model. It can make a $250 model look like a $40 improved Maisto
Very true Diego, that is why the engine brace cheapens the model after all the proper carbon everywhere else.
