- Is this a real car or a model?
- It is a 1:18 scale die-cast model of the 1965 Shelby Cobra 427 S/C roadster, not a full-size car. It is made for display.
- What scale is it and how big is it?
- It is 1:18 scale, so it is roughly 10 to 11 inches long. That fits most standard display shelves and cases.
- Does it have opening parts?
- Yes. The hood, both doors and the trunk open, and the engine bay is detailed.
- How does it compare with Kyosho or Exoto Cobras?
- Those premium replicas have finer detail, better paint and tighter panel fit. This Auto World model costs far less and still offers opening panels and a good shape.
- Is it suitable for a child?
- It is a collector's display model with small parts, so it suits older teens and adults rather than young children.
- What is in the box?
- The model car itself. It does not include a display case or base.
