Gasoline (BBR) - 1:43 - Ferrari 575 GTC #11 Team GPC - 24 Hours of Spa 2004 - Limited Edition of 500 pcs. "New Old Stock" / MIB A HIGHLY LIMITED-SERIES MASTERPIECE FOR DISCERNING COLLECTORS Fans of Scuderia Ferrari and top-level motorsport know just how much the model-making creations of Gasoline (an excellence brand backed by the prestigious BBR company) represent the pinnacle of endurance-racing miniatures. We are offering a very rare opportunity to acquire an exact 1/43-scale replica of the legendary Ferrari 575 GTC (Chassis #2204), entered by the legendary Team GPC Giesse Squadra Corse in the grueling 24 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps in 2004. Driven by a world-class lineup (Mika Salo / Fabio Babini / Philipp Peter / Vincent Vosse), this exceptional car made its mark by claiming a superb 2nd place overall in the Belgian event! • EXCEPTIONALLY RARE: This specific model in the manufacturer's range (Reference: GAS10002A) was produced in a strictly limited run of only 500 examples worldwide. This extremely exclusive production run makes it a highly speculative piece that is impossible to find on the market. • ABSOLUTE MATERIAL QUALITY: Handcrafted high-density resin casting, offering a level of engraving detail and fidelity to the aerodynamic lines impossible to achieve with traditional die-cast zamac. The taut corsa-red paintwork, the application of the Spa sponsor decals and the photo-etched details (wing, wheel nuts, brake discs) demonstrate the outstanding craftsmanship of BBR / Gasoline. • OFFICIAL FERRARI LICENSE: The product's absolute authenticity and historical accuracy are certified by the official holograms and Ferrari logos affixed directly to the Gasoline packaging. HISTORICALLY PRESERVED CONDITION: STRICTLY "NEW OLD STOCK" (MINT IN BOX) This lot comes directly from the private collection of a devoted and exceptionally meticulous adult fan of the Prancing Horse brand, guaranteeing an impeccable history of care. • EXCEPTIONAL MINT CONDITION: The miniature has NEVER BEEN DISPLAYED IN A SHOWCASE AND HAS NEVER BEEN EXPOSED TO LIGHT. It has remained sealed, protected from dust and UV rays. It has been removed from its original box just once, exclusively to take the photos for this listing, and was immediately returned to its case. • CLEAN ENVIRONMENT: Stored in a smoke-free environment (ABSOLUTELY NO TOBACCO SMOKE). No odors and no chemical deterioration of the resin or varnish. • THE CASE: The yellow Gasoline rigid cardboard box, display base and thermoformed Plexiglas cover are all preserved in PRISTINE, AS-NEW CONDITION, with no hairline scratches or yellowing. SPECIAL SHIPPING PROTECTION: To ensure complete integrity and avoid any risk of breakage caused by shipping vibrations, the large rear wing made of resin and photo-etched parts is carefully wrapped and secured out of harm's way, attached beneath the miniature's original base. It is thus protected from damage and ready to be installed by its future, happy owner. HISTORY AND TECHNICAL DETAILS (REAL CAR VS. MINIATURE) The Gasoline miniature reproduces the racing beast developed in 2003 by Ferrari's Corse Clienti division and Michelotto to meet FIA GT1 regulations. • The Beast's Heart (Engine): Under its sculpted carbon-fiber hood, the real 575 GTC houses the ultimate evolution of the naturally aspirated 65-degree V12 (Type F133), enlarged to a colossal displacement of 5,997 cc (6.0 liters). This legendary engine produces a phenomenal 605 horsepower at 6,300 rpm and a monstrous 730 Nm of torque, propelling this 1,150 kg beast to over 335 km/h on the Eau Rouge straight. The Gasoline miniature perfectly captures this aggressive character with its extra-wide track, oversized engine-cooling air intakes and imposing rear diffuser. • Timeline: Real car year: 2004. Gasoline miniature release year: Mid-2000s, now a vintage collector's piece. IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING THE PHOTOS (VISUAL QUALITY) The highly detailed photos in this listing accurately show the miniature and its box in their strictly mint, impeccable condition. Please note that some whitish reflections or sharp lines of light visible in the images are caused solely by light refracting off the Plexiglas cover or glossy varnish during photography. They are in no way defects, scratches, paint loss or damage. ULTRA-SECURE SHIPPING AND DELIVERY: Because a model of such value deserves shipping treatment to match: • Ultra-Secure Shipping: The Gasoline box is wrapped in several layers of heavy-duty bubble wrap, then completely immobilized with professional packing material inside a new, rigid, double-wall corrugated cardboard box. No movement inside is possible during transit. • Premium International Tracking: Ultra-fast shipping with an international tracking number provided as soon as the item is dispatched, delivery requiring a signature, and appropriate insurance covering the lot's full value.
