While we wait for the production model, how about releasing a scale model of the Aptera (about 8 inches long) for purchase and placement on a desk or in a den, etc. Even residents from other than California could obtain a replica of their dream car to admire. I would like one. :)

Excellent idea, maybe we can give Monogram a call and get them together with Aptera. :)

I like to have one, too.

mrxxmas: I'd sure like one of those, too --and other gear! I hope that Aptera signs on here to read such posts in the suggestion box (http://www.apteraforum.com/showthread.php?p=501#post501) once in a while.

I would gladly buy a scale model of the Typ-1. I'd put it next to the SpaceShipOne model.

I'm in!
How about a 1/4 scale RC? That's what I'm talkin' 'bout:D

If you want the model to be 8 inches long, that would make it more like a 1/22 scale model. A 1/8 scale model would be almost 2 feet long.

Most popular scales are 1/18 and 1/43.

Having a model to play with at my desk would be awesome :D

i would love one too...plus, if it was a true and accurate scale model we could finally figure out the true wheel-well to wheel-well dimensions...that, so far, seems to be the hardest info to find out about

i think it would be a great little item for aptera to offer to people who put down a deposit...free would be nice, but not feasible, but i would gladly buy one

I'd like an Aptera model if they're available outside of California. :)

ha...nice

i would like a smaller, 2 to 4 inch model...an 8 inch model would be nice, but labor and cost heavy...would be quicker and easier for aptera to make or commission to make a smaller version...even a key chain sized model would be nice and would be a nice item for the people who buy an aptera
