  Kyosho Ferrari 512BB reviewed
Ferrari's fortunes in this rivalry were no doubt aided by the fact that Lamborghini was chronically underfinanced.
The upshot of this saga is that, from its introduction in 1976, the 512BB carried Ferrari's torch (gaining fuel injection along the way to become the 512BBi) until 1984, when it was replaced by Ferrari's wild-looking Big Stick, the Testarossa.
The underside of the hood, and the rest of the metal area underneath, is painted flat fl, after Ferrari practice.

Ferrari finally realised that it should launch the same type of car to take back its crown.
Therefore Ferrari enlarged it to a full 5 litres, though still lost some 20 hp, torque was increased by a welcomed 29 lbft, and the maximum rev dropped from 7750 rpm to 6500 rpm.
Ferrari saw this as the best opportunity to return to GT racing, since development cost would be far lower than other racing categories.

Due to the bad weather, the Ferrari berlinettas were favored in the grid B race and Vincent Gaye won both the races with his 250SWB over the Maserati 300Ss of Thomas Bscher and William Binnie.
Ferrari presence was prevailing in the grid B race, with many 250 SWBs, two 250 Testa Rossas, a few 500 TRs and Mondials, but also Maseratis, including an A6GCS, 250S and 300S were very aggressive and very well prepared.

 Ferrari 512BB Boxer by Kyosho
Up to that point, all of Ferrari's range topping cars had been front engined, but the mid/rear engine trend started by Lamborghini's Miura had become the expected norm.
Nonetheless the Boxer was a major change of direction in Ferrari design, it's beautiful lines being one of Pininfarina's best designs of the decade.
As of Jan 2006 it is one of the few good quality 1:18th scale Ferraris you can buy as unfortunately an exclusive contract between Ferrari and Mattel/Hotwheels limits the number of companies able to make good Ferraris in 1:18th.

 Ferrari 512BB - Classic Driver - MAGAZINE - features
But Enzo Ferrari was not a man to cower before such an upstart and his answer, when it came two years later, was the resolutely old-school, front-engined 365 GTB/4.
Underneath the all-steel (with aluminium ‘openings’) bodywork was a square-section tubular steel central monocoque, behind which was cradled the new 4390cc flat-12, with a claimed 360bhp at its disposal.
Quite why Ferrari reverted to its traditional racing nomenclature (512 indicating five litres and 12 pots) is one of those curious Italian conundrums to which there is either no answer, or half a dozen.

 Ferrari 308GTB and 328GTB
Unfortunately, since the second model year Ferrari changed it to conventional steel bodywork – something like the aluminum body 206GT evolved to steel body 246GT.
Some said Ferrari did that because many customers perceived plastic body as cheap, but most believed it was because Ferrari knew steel was actually cheaper for mass production, ridiculously.
Therefore after a couple of years Ferrari decided to add a KKK turbocharger to the V8 and restored its power to 220hp.

From build-ups I've seen so far, it seems that the 512BB seems accurate, and I doubt Fujimi will screw up the 512BBi, because the differences are minor, and parts seem to be molded for easy conversion.
The 365 was updated as the 512BB in 1976, resuming the name of the earlier Ferrari 512 racer.
Text is ok, but You have one pic from standard 365, one from modded 365 and four pics of 512BBi (or 512BB that has been modded to look like one).

Designed by Pinninfarinna, the body of this model varied little from it's predecessor, the 365 GT4/BB, with the exceptions of a wider rear end to accomodate the Michelin XWX 225/70 tyres, two sets of rear lights replacing the previous six, two double exhaust pipes and a discrete spoiler at the front.
