I agree, the design speaks for itself.

Oh no...full-on 1/18 ;)
Totally worth it even though the doors don't open and stuff like that. Every. Little. Detail is 100% accurate, it makes AUTOart look like a Hot Wheels from Wal-Mart. As some people know, Koenigsegg #112 One:1 is my favorite single car in the world, so this was a must-get and will stay in my collection forever.

$500, but I knew I was buying it as soon as I saw them producing the other One:1s, it was just a matter of when I could get my hands on it. Considering it's a representation of the pinnacle of cars for me, I'd say it's priceless.
I wish I could take better pics! My room is pretty dark overall and I want to keep it in its case as much as I can lol

what is better in terms of collecting and value, keeping it in the box, or taking it out but keeping the box?

Depends on the person really.
Keeping it in the box prevents dust collection on the model and prevents any scratches if any, while cleaning.

Don't buy a model car as an investment, buy it too enjoy it, and if the value appreciates that's great.

I'm probably going to buy myself a Kyosho 1:18 Ferrari F40, have been saving up for it for a few months now. It might not be the best quality but it fits my budget and looks like at least a decent model. Would have bought a Huracan, but there are none available in the spec I want it in.

Then buy a Welly 1:18 Huracan, take it apart, and customize/paint it the way you want.

Taking it out of the box/case is fine as long as you retain everything to put it back in like it's new. I wish I thought about that with my CCX, but I still might be able to sell because of its elusiveness now.

I remember not too long ago, I saw a 1:18 Autoart CCX go up on eBay for $400 without the box. Then the same seller posted a separate listing for the paper box for $60, and also another listing for the styrofoam box for $50.
Funniest sh*t I've seen
