Once I got a veird idea to compare the exisiting "mid-scale" cars to see how they match (or don't in size, wheelbase and other dimensions). Here is the result of overlaying the folloeing cars:

  • 42093 Chevrolet Corvette
  • 42098 "Fake Chevrolet Camaro"
  • 42123 McLaren Senna
  • 42138 Mustang Shelby GT500

I used the front-left wheelarch (panted in red) as an anchor and that is what I get:

640x480.png 640x480.png 640x480.png640x480.png 

  1. The biggest surptise for me was that Senna is not that low as may look like - its roof is even the higest one. Only "Fake Camaro" is higer, but due to lifter rear axle.
  2. Another discovery - the rear overhang of Shelby GT500 (I saw it as disproportionally short) is just only 1 stud shorter than McLaren's one
  3. Corvette's front overhang appeared only 1-stud shorthet than McLaren's "nose"
  4. And now the wheelbases: early-built Chevrolettes shares the same wheelbase, than +1 stud longer goes Shelby and once again +1 stud longer goes McLaren

Interesting indeed. Can you do the same for the 1:8 supercars?

Well, I will check if I have their models assembled and will try to do it. It should be interesting too :classic:

@Void_S These are awesome graphics, what modeling software are you using? Is this Studio or a real cad like Creo or Solidworks?

It's Studo in-built render. I set the higetst quality and let running for a day (my laptop is a kid of slow crap) to render them.

Just a short note: set number of the Ford Mustang is 42138, not 42128.

Oh, my bad. Corrected it, thank you!
