My new 356...

Anyone ever see one of these?

It's made in a limited edition by a certain Guillermo Forchino in Italy - who appears to have made some serious coin selling these kind of "statues".

The detail is quite incredible, including dints in the hood, mud spatters on the fenders and Louis Vuitton luggage etc.

It was a present from a good friend but I still haven't decided whether I actually like the thing.

tabs, I saw a slew of these in Vegas...some were in that crazy store in the forum shops...the one which has all of the neo-classical bric-a-brac. they ahd different sizes, and besides 356s had an E-type and an MG.

The other store was in the Venetian shops--the one which sells the Ferrari stuff.

I think the artist has captured the character of the car very well...
