Ferrari 166 MM Abarth Metallic Silver Press Version 1953 in 1:18 scale
This is the Ferrari 166 MM Abarth Metallic Silver Press Version 1953 in 1:18 scale by Tecnomodel.
The 1953 Ferrari 166 MM Abarth in Metallic Silver—known as the Press Version—is a stunning example of early Ferrari innovation paired with bespoke Abarth design. What makes this car truly unique is its one-off aluminum body sculpted by Abarth, emphasizing lightweight construction and aerodynamic efficiency at a time when such design philosophies were still emerging. Beneath its sleek, silvery exterior lies Ferrari’s famed 2.0-liter Colombo V12, delivering agile performance and a high-revving soundtrack that set it apart from larger-displacement rivals. As a special press car, it wasn’t just built to perform—it was built to make a statement. Its rarity, distinctive coachwork, and role in showcasing Ferrari’s growing dominance in both style and speed make it an irreplaceable piece of automotive history.
This model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish and has a sealed body. Resin models are
exceptionally accurate of scale, shape and detail. Each model is created using a variety of production
processes, to achieve this precision. They are produced using a composite material referred to in the
industry as “resin”. Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are often used
for the most authentic replication
