An Important Part of the Ferrari Legend in Racing History Follows...
1). “Small and light” was often the formula for success... As for the more powerful big block cars, they regularly ended up against the stone walls, buildings, rocks, and posts that lined the course. Therefore, the “cutting-edge” Ferrari World Championship racecars, were not ideally suited for race courses that were made up of tight turns and mountain roads.
2). The Scuderia Prancing Horse Marque:
Scuderia is Italian for a stable reserved for racing horses and is also commonly applied to Italian motor racing teams. The prancing horse was the symbol on a famous Italian World War I ace\'s fighter plane, and became the logo of Ferrari after the fallen ace\'s parents (good friends with Enzo Ferrari) asked him to continue his tradition of sportsmanship, gallantry and boldness...
3). The Ferrari P series (shown in photos) were mid-engined V-12 prototype sports cars. The 1966 330 P3s introduced fuel injection to the Ferrari stable and is considered (by many) to be the ultimate and most beautiful of all racing prototypes...
4). There were only four Ferrari 412Ps ever built. All four of these cars were sold to Ferrari\'s privateer teams - to back up the factory\'s own P4s. These cars had carburetor engines instead of the factory Lucas fuel injection system that the original 330 P3 factory racecars had...The reason: when Ferrari sold them to racing privateers, they removed the Lucas Mechanical Fuel Injection and replaced it with Weber carburetors which reduced their output. Ferrari made this alteration so that they would win points for the marquee, but the privateers would not be able to beat their factory team cars... 330 P3s were \"converted to P4 specifications\" and christened \"412 P.\"
5). With less than six ever built in all, the 412Ps, 330 P 3/4, and P4\'s meant that they were still classified as \"Racing Prototypes.\" After the 1967 season, racing politics altered international racing regulations, a change that eliminated all large displacement sports prototypes. Therefore, the fastest Ferraris were no longer eligible, even though Enzo protested...
6). Ferrari converted some of these cars for use in the North American Can-Am series, where the vehicle’s ultra-light body and lots of power was appreciated – a move long awaited by Ferrari’s loyal and passionate US customer base....
To say these machines are rare is an understatement andis widely regarded as one of the greatest sports-racers ever designed...

About Us:
The love of automobiles led us to start our involvement in this hobby....
Eight years ago, we became purchasers/investors in rare, high quality, die cast cars. Now, after eight years of buying thousands of rare pieces this is our first attempt to offer some of our acquisitions to other collectors worldwide.
RARE, BUT NOT PERFECT’s mission statement : To offer the rarest and most aesthetically pleasing die cast replicas of the most remarkable automobiles ever made.
Our organization is dedicated to the “car guy” that loves what these historical cars represent: the power of human ingenuity, sculpted into an art form.
Most of our offerings are relatively rare die cast replicas of the greatest cars ever built.
Many of our offerings arerare andlong “out of production” (meaning these models are not being produced any more).
All of our offerings are previously owned models, and not delivered in perfect inner or outer boxes... Thus, making our offerings usually “rare, but not perfect,” as our name implies.
Enjoy these miniature reproductions of some of the world’s greatest automobiles as a reminder that life is good, but not perfect.
Rare, but Not Perfect stands behind every item we sell. We strive for Five Star response (the “life blood” for sellers on ). If you acquire a replica from us, would be so kind as to exchange positive response for five star ratings...to help with each other confirm that we are worthy of our privileges?
Asking our patrons for help and tolerance:
This hobby we love centers around fragile artifacts (scale model cars) that are just a little more sophisticated than the ones we admired as kids! ...We, at Rare, But Not Perfect, take the time to carefully pack each and every order.
Have fun and enjoy this great car hobby.
