Say what you want about flame tires vs rubber with flames....this statue is amazingly painted. The shading and color blending on the flames is pretty damn fantastic. That must have been time and money consuming.

Also, I'm not on one of the owners, but I do like the edition number on the license plate

That license plate is something really unique IMO, it's like putting a cherry on top of a delicious cheesecake

That'll always be a sticking point for collectors outside of XM territories. I know I'd buy a lot more XM merch if shipping costs weren't so damn high.

do you guys think it's possible that sellers are inflating shipping costs to make an additional profit?

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.
