Hi all!

I say it`s time to stop the whole carousel of re-editions.As a way to commemorate special events or particular models I guess it`s ok,but I wish the development team would spend some more time innovating,instead of re-inventing.
The Carrera line is probably the only model line which has gone through a natural development,each new model capturing its time,while keeping the identity and the heritage intact.The Carrera RS2 is a great example of this strategy,and the Monaco concepts are also looking very exciting.

How about trying to maintain some continuity,updating and developing the models as you go along,instead of just slapping a classic model signature on whatever they manage to put together at the time?

I`ll let the Monza re-edition illustrate my point.The original Monza captured the look and style of the late 70s/early 80s,then disappeared for a good 30 yrs.
All of a sudden it`s back,looking like the Camaro`s distant,inbred cousin?
In my opinion this is not the way to go,and I`m not even mentioning the TAG Autavia..
