1984 Ferrari 288 GTO Red in 1:12 scale
This is the 1984 Ferrari 288 GTO Red in 1:12 scale by Top Marques.
The 1984 Ferrari 288 GTO in its classic red livery is an automotive masterpiece that stands apart from its competition with its blend of raw power and exquisite design. Designed to compete in Group B racing, the 288 GTO features a mid-mounted twin-turbocharged 2.9-liter V8 engine producing around 400 horsepower. This powertrain, coupled with a lightweight chassis and advanced aerodynamics, allows the 288 GTO to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just over 4 seconds and reach a top speed of over 180 mph. What sets it apart is its rarity—only 272 units were built—and its technological advancements for its time, including extensive use of composite materials and cutting-edge suspension systems. The 288 GTO's aggressive yet elegant styling, with its wide stance and distinctive air intakes, further cements its status as a coveted icon among Ferrari enthusiasts and collectors alike.
This model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish and has a sealed body. Resin models are
exceptionally accurate of scale, shape and detail. Each model is created using a variety of production
processes, to achieve this precision. They are produced using a composite material referred to in the
industry as “resin”. Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are often used
for the most authentic replication.
