I have one of those, new in the box, it is a number of years old....but Pocher made some fine kits.

I found the price interesting, almost makes me want to rethink the plan of building it myself as a retirement project in favour of selling the kit. Wow.....$750 seems like a lot!

I had one of those. Never built it, but sold it eventually for about 2X what I paid. I've built other Pocher kits, and they are impressive. But $750? Yikes.

A bargain compared to the $3K Testarossa Complete Pocher 1/8 Ferrari Testarossa built model - *ScaleDetails Website

The quality on the Pocher kit is terrible compared to the earlier kits. I can see from the photos that he has put a LOT of time into making it somewhat better.

$750 and I don't even get to put it together? What a rip

Side note: that thing is HUGE. I would spend a year building details given how big it is. So many details missing.

Jeez- amazing what the price of these kits now are. The scale made them attractive but the quality was very low. But as the ad describes, pro built and no doubt worth the money in time and quality. At one time, could get the kits under $200 (without upgrades).

Much prefer the AutoArt models in 1:12 scale. Of course, they're ready built so what fun is that?!

Has anyone seen the 1:12 scale PREMIUM CLASSIXXS 911 up close? Other than net images, have never seen them.

$750 ??!!
I can find 1:1 Porsche 924 models for that kind of money.
