The clean big 320 is a 1/25 scale , just fractionally smaller than the standard 1/24 scale models.
If you go into Wal-Mart and buy a hot-rod model it will be a 1/24.
But its not the stock model : the rims are from a 1/24 Ferrari model , they were 17" on the Ferrari ,so on the 320 theyre like 18's.
The pizza-platter size brake discs are from a big 1/18 Dodge Copperhead die-cast.
The fat tip is from the dual exhaust from the same Copperhead , but I drilled it out and painted the inside black to make it more realistic and bigger.
Notice the clear blinkers ? and the single wiper ? also the black grill ?
The smaller 320 is a 1/64 scale die-cast toy , same size as a Hot Wheel.
But I've also juiced it up too.
Chrome rims with rubber tires and a severely slammed stance.
I still need to trim the front bumper.
Its kinda messed up because kids always gravitate towards it .
Damned Kids !
The "body kit" on the big one on;y consists of the Hartge spoiler.
The real Hartge was modeled after the Motorsports bumper replacement spoiler.
But it mounted under the stock bumper.
I just left the bumpers off , and moved the spoiler up.
Yes it came with euro bumpers.
This model can be built as either a Alpina C1 or a Hartge H35.
The smaller car has a Alpina front spoiler and what looks like a standard Zender type rear.
But its a US model , complete with rear side markers.
Check out the brakes on the 1/25:

P.S.: That amp isnt small , its like 2 feet long.
And the JL is a 15".
I'll try and get some interesting pics for size reference.
