Hi what can you tell me,Carrera BMW Z4 coupe mar BMW Z4 GT3 scaleauto BMW Z4 GT3 models. Which is best out the box & can other brands be upgraded to be as good or better? I ask because the Z4M coupe is my favourite version looks wise plus I do love modifying my slot cars so all info &/or opinions greatly appreciated.

Hope that helps in understanding his question? Myself I'd go for the Scaleauto Z4.

Yes, makes sense.
Carrera's aren't going to scare a Scaleauto any time soon...only in looks

I'm with Top Down.
Yes, ScaleAuto is a much better choice.

You have received the best advice. ….Scaleauto in a sidewinder configuration is the only thing I’d add.

Have you considered a NSR? I think that OOTB it is the best choice.

Scaleauto (anglewinder 'R' version ) would be my choice.

Thanks lads for all replies. I've looked again at all gt3 models & think a NSR Aston Martin vantage V12 could well be my new choice. At home I only have a rally track being built up,as not room enough for a GT track. But I want to start going to avon slotcar club to race gt3 cars etc. I still have plenty of build projects to complete first too just can't help looking for future plans,thank again.

Slightly off-topic- you’ll probably need a Group C car or a Mosler if you want to race GTs at Avon Club. The only class for GTs is Sports Endurance and I don’t think anyone is running a GT3.
