New casting? Quick! Take it apart!
|
Still trying to decide if this was a real car, or Playart just made it look like something else. If they did the latter, what could it be?

I see that car of the week was one by two beaters, and station wagons to boot.... and they both deserve it!! |

I have always liked those wheels that Playart used after they had to drop the hubs - but then this one would not have looked right with the those - for Playart not bad, not bad at all!

You're in luck! This casting was in the lineup long enough for Playart to include at least three different wheel designs on it. But unfortunately, none of the three come close to the 5-hole style wheels that were fitted on the original Silhouette. ![]() |

I like seeing these more obscure supercars done in scale. Then I see it's 0-60 (OK, 62.1) is 6.5 seconds. I've never timed my Cobalt SS officially, but I don't think this Lambo would be any more than a length or two in front of me at 60. Whatever the case, the Silhouette is still an interesting subject for one of our little cars, and I'm sort of surprised that one of the bigger names in the hobby didn't do it too. I could easily imagine Matchbox doing it, for example. After all, they did give us the Marzal show car. |

Playart covered the Marzal as well, and the Carabo. This reminds me of the Spicup...that is one bizarre car covered by Playart. |
