I think Gilles' T3 was different than Carlos'. I wonder if they'll do the other versions eventually? I get the feeling they may have rushed this one into production because of Carlos' passing.

Agreed, hopefully a USGP East & Canada version will follow.

Alex, (et all) Ferrari was quite active in terms of development with the T3... usually both cars differed, anyway...

There´s apparently not much different, though yes, Carlos car has openings on the front body. Wait or change, tough choice!!
The T5... hmmm I am into making one with the T4, but you might prefer stock thing :D

So, does anybody know, what happened to MFH loosing the license to make Ferrari kits? A last minute deal was struck or are they just awaiting a cease and desist?

My Guess,,, Still no license. Just like all of the Porsche cars they have released that didn't say Porsche on the side of the box, it doesn't say Ferrari anywhere on the photos they released.

In the year 2014 have the May Cheong Group (BBurago maisto) a multiyear deal, exclusive agreement with Ferrari for the most cars.
I think to buy a second license, the price is to high.
