1:18 Looksmart Ferrari J50 Review 1:18 Looksmart Ferrari J50 Review Welcome to my review of the 1:18 Looksmart Ferrari J50 in French Racing Blue! If you don’t fancy reading the whole background of the real car, feel free to click here and skip straight to the model itself. During a special celebration held at the National Art Centre in Tokyo to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Ferrari in Japan on 13th December 2016, the Ferrari J50 was unveiled to the world. Just 10 examples of this car will exist – each one being fully bespoke and tailored to the owner’s specifications. Estimated to cost their lucky owners in the region of €2.5 – €3 million, only Ferrari’s one-off Special Projects cars are rarer. Ferrari J50 as presented at the launch in December 2016 www.themodelcarcritic.com | 1 1:18 Looksmart Ferrari J50 Review The Ferrari J50 is a two seat mid-engined roadster that is based on the 488 Spider, but uses an uprated 681bhp version of the critically acclaimed 3.9 litre turbocharged V8 engine (which won the 2016 International Engine of the Year Award). Gone is the Spider’s folding roof, replaced with a pair of carbon fibre targa panels. Coupled with that wraparound visor- style front window, the look is certainly super sleek! With an all-new body tailored specifically to the Japanese market, this futuristic and quite radical design approach was “led by the desire to create a very low-slung roadster, encapsulating intrinsic Ferrari values of nimbleness and agility” (Ferrari J50 Press Release). The car is defined by two strong lines on the side – the slanted top edge of the window, which feeds into the windscreen and the lower, steeply-raked black swage line that starts from the nose and tails off in the air intake behind the doors. The latter design cue has definitely been inspired by legends such as the 288 GTO, F40 and F50. www.themodelcarcritic.com | 2 1:18 Looksmart Ferrari J50 Review Press shot of Ferrari J50 Moving round to the rear and you can see how “the engine is framed by a transparent polycarbonate cover which is intricately shaped to provide a visual extension of the two separate roll hoops protecting the heads of driver and passenger”. The four tail light design serves to widen the rear of the car and the “rear diffuser features an extractor shape inspired by jet engine afterburners, giving the car a powerful stance” (Ferrari J50 Press Release). Ferrari J50 as presented at the launch in December 2016 The launch specification shown here is a unique shade of triple layer red, with a red on black leather and Alcantara interior. No Ferrari would look complete without a red paint option, but in my opinion there are better colours that customers have chosen. www.themodelcarcritic.com | 3 1:18 Looksmart Ferrari J50 Review The review… Looksmart Models are no strangers to producing Ferrari scale models and here they are again with a 1:18 scale replica of this special edition J50. A member of the MR Group and a sister brand to MR Collection Models the MR Group is an Official Supplier of Ferrari and this 1:18 Looksmart Ferrari J50 is, of course, a Ferrari Official Licensed Product. You will regularly find their models on display at Ferrari premieres and of course in Ferrari stores worldwide! Looksmart have replicated the Ferrari J50 in 1:18 scale in six rather unique colour combinations – I’m certain there will be at least one to suit each collector’s tastes! LS18_016A – Body colour finished in Rosso TRS shiny with Silver shiny wheels, Rosso Corsa brake calipers and Carbonium shiny wing mirrors. LS18_016B – Body colour finished in Bianco Liana shiny with Canna di Fucile Matte wheels, Rosso Corsa brake calipers and Carbonium shiny wing mirrors. LS18_016C – Body colour finished in French Racing Blue shiny with gold shiny wheels, black shiny brake calipers and Carbonium shiny wing mirrors. LS18_016D – Body colour finished in Pure Metal Silver shiny with silver shiny wheels, Rosso Corsa brake calipers and Carbonium shiny wing mirrors. This model also features the Italian flag on the side of the front splitter. LS18_016E – Body colour finished in Giallo Tristrato shiny with silver shiny wheels, Giallo Modena brake calipers and Carbonium shiny wing mirrors. LS18_016F – Body colour finished in Nero Daytona shiny plus a white line on the side skirts with Grigio Corsa matte wheels, silver brake calipers and Carbonium shiny wing mirrors. www.themodelcarcritic.com | 4 1:18 Looksmart Ferrari J50 Review LS18_016A www.themodelcarcritic.com | 5 1:18 Looksmart Ferrari J50 Review LS18_016B www.themodelcarcritic.com | 6 1:18 Looksmart Ferrari J50 Review LS18_016C www.themodelcarcritic.com | 7 1:18 Looksmart Ferrari J50 Review LS18_016D www.themodelcarcritic.com | 8 1:18 Looksmart Ferrari J50 Review LS18_016E www.themodelcarcritic.com | 9 1:18 Looksmart Ferrari J50 Review LS18_016F MR Group very kindly sent me one of their 1:18 Looksmart Ferrari J50 models to review and gave me the option to choose a preferred colour. I immediately knew I had to go for the French Racing Blue with gold wheels! It is so far off the typical red/black/yellow Ferrari models that seem to make up most people’s collections (including my own), so I thought the blue and gold combination would be suitably out there. I certainly wasn’t disappointed when I opened the box up for the first time! Suggested RRP for these models is 290EUR, but a quick search on the main European model retailers shows a price in the region of 250-265EUR. So how do Looksmart’s efforts pan out? This is not my first model from MR Group. I’ve been fortunate enough to review their MR Collection 1:18 Ferrari LaFerrari Aperta and Looksmart 1:43 Ferrari Portofino and both were nice efforts – I was particularly surprised at how much detail they managed to pack into a 1:43 model and their LaFerrari Aperta www.themodelcarcritic.com | 10 1:18 Looksmart Ferrari J50 Review showcased some new materials and features, so those two reviews are well worth a read if you haven’t done so already! Perhaps more importantly, how do their efforts stack up against the competition from the more expensive 1:18 Ferrari J50 from rival BBR? Let’s dive in and find out! The 1:18 Looksmart Ferrari J50 is presented in their typical Ferrari packaging – a red two section box with the Ferrari and Looksmart logos on, plus a sticker on the side designating the model within. You’ll also find a Ferrari Official Product sticker with a holographic Prancing Horse logo on reminding you that you’re getting the real deal! Slide off the upper section, drop the front flap and you’ll be presented with the model sitting on a blue leather effect base with an acrylic cover to protect it on top. The combination of the French Racing Blue and gold wheels with the blue and yellow interior immediately www.themodelcarcritic.com | 11 1:18 Looksmart Ferrari J50 Review strikes you as a thing of beauty! This thing is jaw-droppingly pretty and I knew that I had chosen the right spec. To my own eyes, the blue and gold are a bit darker than what Looksmart’s promo pictures may suggest. This particular colour seems very difficult to capture 100% honestly as the naked eye would see it, so do bear that in mind before you order. Personally, I don’t think you will complain if you had your heart set on the French Racing Blue variant either way – it is simply stunning to behold! Lift off the silky smooth acrylic display cover and you get hit up the nostrils with that typical whiff of paint and glue from the model – nothing has changed from my review of the MR Collection 1:18 Ferrari LaFerrari Aperta and I still enjoy that “new model” smell two years on! I’m curious to know who else enjoys this olfactory sensation too or am I the only weird one out there? This is our first proper look at the French Racing Blue paintjob with the gold wheels in all its glory. The colour is quite hard to capture and looks different depending on www.themodelcarcritic.com | 12 1:18 Looksmart Ferrari J50 Review the level and type of light. As I said earlier, I absolutely love it! Would you have chosen this colour too? So far I can’t see a bad angle on the model and you can definitely see the styling evolution from this J50 to the recently announced Ferrari F8 Tributo and SF90 Stradale. www.themodelcarcritic.com | 13 1:18 Looksmart Ferrari J50 Review Being limited to just ten examples in the whole world (and all initially sold to Japanese buyers) it hasn’t been too easy to find close up pictures of the real car, never mind to match www.themodelcarcritic.com | 14 1:18 Looksmart Ferrari J50 Review the French Racing Blue we have for review here! However, I stumbled upon a little article in The Official Ferrari Magazine which featured a couple of pictures and a video on this exact specification, so here are a few pictures of the real car to compare and contrast with our 1:18 Looksmart Ferrari J50. Front and rear view of Ferrari J50 finished in French Racing Blue with gold wheels www.themodelcarcritic.com | 15 1:18 Looksmart Ferrari J50 Review Zooming in immediately to the badges around the model, firstly starting with the Prancing Horse badge on the front. Looksmart have created a recess in the body moulding to place a proper badge in there, but opted to use a simple decal instead.

    The Ferrari F8 TributoTributo:::: a celebration of excellence An homage to the most powerful VVV8V8 in Ferrari history The first photographs revealed ahead of official March 5 ththth unveiling at Geneva Motor Show Maranello, 28 February 2019 - Ferrari has revealed the first official photographs of the F8 Tributo, the new mid-rear-engined sports car that represents the highest expression of the company’s classic two-seater berlinetta. The name is an homage to both the model’s uncompromising layout and to the engine that powers it – with a massive 720 cv and a record specific power output of 185 cv/l, it is the most powerful V8 in Prancing Horse history for a non-special series car and sets the benchmark not just for turbos, but for engines across the board. The 3902 cc V8 won “Best Engine” in the International Engine of the Year awards three years running in 2016, 2017 and 2018 and, in addition, in 2018, was awarded the title of the best engine of the last two decades. As these prestigious awards demonstrate, in the automotive world, Ferrari’s V8 engine is seen as the very epitome of sportiness and driving pleasure. This is particularly the case when it is mid-rear-mounted in a two-seater. Ferrari has been honing the scope of abilities of this architecture, which creates an optimal weight balance, to perfection for over four decades. The result is the F8 Tributo, which is one of the fastest, most thrilling and communicative supercars ever. The new car replaces the 488 GTB, with improvements across the board, providing even better control on the limit along with greater on-board comfort.

    Ferrari F8 TributoTributo,,,, a celebration of excellence TTTheThe midmid----rearrearrear----enginedengined twotwo----seaterseater berlinetta that pays homage to the most powerful V8 in Ferrari history Maranello, 5 March 2019 - The F8 Tributo is the new mid-rear-engined sports car that represents the highest expression of the Prancing Horse’s classic two-seater berlinetta. It is a car with unique characteristics and, as its name implies, is an homage to the most powerful V8 in Ferrari history. The F8 Tributo sets the market benchmark for performance, driving pleasure and ease of handling. It makes the exhilarating performance of the best 8-cylinder in the world accessible to all drivers, with unprecedented handling and superior ride comfort. With a massive 720 cv and a record specific power output of 185 cv/l, it is the most powerful V8 ever to be mounted in a non-special series Ferrari, achieving new heights not just for turbos, but for engines across the board. The turbo-charged V8 has already been used in other models in the range with various power output levels, winning “Best Engine” in the International Engine of the Year awards three years running in 2016, 2017 and 2018. In 2018, it was also awarded the title of the best engine of the last two decades. The F8 Tributo delivers its 720 cv without the slightest hint of turbo lag and produces an evocative soundtrack. Instantaneous power is matched by exceptional handling thanks to the integration of state-of-the-art aerodynamics solutions derived from Ferrari’s track experience. Designed by the Ferrari Styling Centre, the F8 Tributo is essentially a bridge to a new design language that will continue to emphasise Ferrari’s key characteristics of high performance and extreme aerodynamic efficiency.

Von Freitag, dem 5., bis Sonntag, dem 7. Juli, dreht sich in der Eifel wieder einmal alles um das Cavallino Rampante. Der Ring gehört dann den Achtzylinder-Berlinetten und V12-Coupés, und wahrscheinlich wird auch der eine oder andere Sechs- oder Zehnzylinder zu hören sein – schließlich werden weder die Dinos der siebziger Jahre noch die Formel-1-Rennwagen der neunziger Jahre ausgeschlossen. Neben den „Racing Gentlemen“ der Ferrari Challenge Europe werden auch die Teilnehmer der XX- Programme den Asphalt aufheizen, wobei Letztere dem Vernehmen nach sogar auf die Nordschleife dürfen. Dieses Privileg bleibt den Monoposti der F1 Clienti verwehrt, doch die Formel 1 gehört am Nürburgring ohnehin seit 1984 auf die Grand-Prix-Strecke. Auch für straßenzugelassene Ferrari, die auf eigener Achse in die Eifel kommen, ist gesorgt.

  • Geneva Debut Cars of the Last Decade: Appreciating and Depreciating Models
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 06 March 2019 GENEVA DEBUT CARS OF THE LAST DECADE: APPRECIATING AND DEPRECIATING MODELS • JBR Capital identifies top 10 cars launched at the Geneva Motor Show in the last 10 years* • Lamborghini Veneno worth 180 per cent more than when unveiled in 2013 • The current generation Maserati Quattroporte, launched the same year, is down 71 per cent in value London-based JBR Capital, specialists in high-end vehicle finance, has named the top 10 cars that have appreciated in value or held their worth after launching at the Geneva Motor Show over the last decade. The Lamborghini Veneno, unveiled at the show in 2013, tops the charts as this ultra-limited edition has appreciated in value by 180 per cent – according to the experts at JBR Capital. With a launch price tag of £2.6 million, there were only five Veneno coupes ever sold and they could now be worth in excess of £7.3 million each. In stark contrast, there are some cars that have depreciated by more than two thirds since debuting at the Geneva Motor Show, such as the sixth generation Maserati Quattroporte. Revealed in the same year as the prized Veneno, the current Quattroporte model – despite being a marked improvement on its predecessor – can now be purchased for a much more affordable £32,000, with that price quoted for low mileage V8 examples. JBR Capital’s top 10 Geneva Motor Show debut cars are, in the following order: Car Geneva Price at Value Value debut launch now change Lamborghini 2013 £2.6m £7.3m +180% Veneno Ferrari LaFerrari 2013 £1.15m £2.4m +109% Koenigsegg
