Very disappointing. I had hoped this kind of shenanigans would be beneath Carerra.

The digital version at this dealer is 97.00, a little cheaper, but still a hefty price. It does include a controller.

Last years digital limited edition Audi R8, that I bought from this same dealer was around $55.00. But it did
not include a controller or special case.
If you don't need digital, pulling out and selling the chip and controller to get the price down.

Retail for this is supposed to be in the area of $140. They are limited to about 1999 pcs. My guess is that 475ish will make it to the USA. I've seen prices from $100-$140.

I would have loved to see it in a regular release...but that isn't the case. It is a collectible with a collectible price tag.

I buy cars to race and enjoy on the the track, not a shelf. It is just one car that I can live without. Just like many other special releases like this that have come and gone over the years.

So, it doesn't bother me what the price is...I never planned on getting it. Maybe down the road I'll get one, but it would be just another piece of man-cave eye candy and I am running out of room anyway :)

With Carrera keeping the lowest price in our hobby on the rest of the regular releases, I won't be too hard on them.

I would hope that eventually it will be released in analog form in a standard case at a more reasonable price. The D50 is a classic that I would probably get if it were at a more reasonable price.

I hope they release a non collector version with a driver.

Maybe Carrera is banking on this being a big seller in their European market.
