Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Fw: Model of a Ferrari DINO 308 GT4 in scale 1:18 ! (~23cm long)

What you saw was an AdBrite interstitial. Wait for a few seconds, then press
the "Skip this Ad" button in the upper right corner.

What this guy is selling is not a die-cast car. It's a test mold. Doesn't
sound fishy to me, but also doesn't sound like it's worth 300 Euros either.

I'd written to someone I found while Googling for 308gt4 model or somesuch.
I tried clicking on the link and for about 2 seconds was able to see a
partial image of what might have been what he was talking about, but then a
pop-up appeared and another page loaded over the image I'd seen briefly.
And, at 300 Euros, there's no way in bloody hell I'm going to even think
about buying it.  And, the story sounds kinda fishy, anyway.
But, in the spirit of sharing information, here y'all go!
YMMV and "be careful out there"
