I think that go-kart is the one I had too. I remember that steering assembly...which seems amusingly simple and primitive now, to my young eyes it was very complex and I was shocked I could build such a thing.
 
I was always much more into creating buildings, and that was my only Technic set.

Xmas Gift from a Friend by lemko

A friend just gave me a really nice Danbury Mint 1:24 scale model of a 1956 Packard Caribbean hardtop:
 

 
It features reversible seat cushions that mimic those on the real car - leather on one side and a brocade pattern on the other. The model comes with a magnetic tool to reverse the cushions.

My Latest Acquisition... by roadburner

Nice model, Lemko. I picked this up on eBay:
 

 
I also have a 316i Compact. Someday I want to kitbash a model of my 1995 Club Sport. I'll need to pick up another 316 as well as an M3- the M3 will provide the mirrors as well as the M Technic aerodynamic pieces.

Cool, must be a Euro market model. I wish I could find some kind of decent model of a W210 E55....there was a Japanese plastic kit of a pre facelift car, nothing else that I know of. Minichamps needs to come to the rescue.

It's Revell of Germany. The bodyshell is pre-painted. I have a Dragon E36 M3 Lightweight that is also pre-painted. It sure makes it easy to build a good looking model- though I kind of feel like I'm cheating...
I'll be on the lookout for an E55.
