I didn't know they were making a Pur Blanc. The want is strong.

One word: Yes.

Ugh I really want one of those models.

I've really been eyeballing a CMC Ferrari 250 California though. The only thing keeping me from getting one is that I'm not sure if that price is worth it for a model car.

I have one of those in silver. Fortunately I got mine on sale for $189.99 through a local dealer, which is a far cry from the ~$450 it goes for. And let me tell you, it's worth every penny.
Immaculate detail that's second to none.

I'm looking at silver or black. I'd look at blue but the only one I can really find is $600, lol. If I get one I really would want to get one with the hardtop (or do they all come with that?).

They all come with a hardtop and a rolling rack to put your hardtop on. Silver is a great alternative, considering both the red and blue variant go for crazy money nowadays.

I heard only the Limited Edition ones come with hardtops, which is what I've been trying to look into more about. I like all the colors, and I've actually found some reasonably priced red ones (compared to the other models).

They all come with a attachable hardtop. It's just whether or not you know how to put it on. It gets quite tricky.

Huh, interesting. Thanks for the help. Hopefully I can find one with a good deal on it.

Technically they're all limited edition since they're all 1 of 2,500
Good luck finding one, if anything, right now is the perfect time to get one since companies are shifting towards resin and composites as oppose to diecast. There's also the value/profit factor but I'm a collector not an investor, so that doesn't bother me.

I've actually noticed a decent number of the boxes for the ones on sale don't say "Limited Edition" on them. Others do say "Limited Edition" on the box.

That's odd because they should all have it as part of the box design as mine does too. Maybe the first shipments out didn't have that design feature

Not all of them do. And I've noticed only the listings with "Limited Edition" on the box and/or in the title of the listing have a roof.

Ended up finding a blue one this afternoon (it is hard to resist the color and it wasn't /that/ much higher priced than the silver/black). I can't wait for it to come in now!

It was fairly pricey (I'll message you the price), but it was one of the best prices I saw for a blue one anywhere. I was originally going to go with one of the other colors, but the blue was hard to pass up after I saw good pictures of it.
