Great deal for the price, had mine awhile.

A couple of anomalies:

rims (as previously stated)
WEIRDEST - it has a clutch pedal!!!!
has the short antenna
does NOT have smoked reverse lights or smoked 3rd brake light
inside door handle trim not correct (missing more silver)
seat color not correct (AMG has the dual color seats, red and black)
missing 1/2 the exhaust from the header
center console storage disproportionately wide

But other detail is amazing.

Nothing abnormal about that, that's what it should come with in the real model. Too bad it's a few pennies out of my price range.

That looks awful. AutoArt should have this model. Than it would have
real brakes and carpet inside not to mention the wheels.
Even for $15 a waste of money
