This fall Greenlight will be releasing a 1:24 scale replica of the E85 Ethanol Concept Z06 Indy 500 Corvette Pace Car driven by two time Indianapolis winner Emerson Fittipaldi. What makes this piece truly special is Greenlight’s use of the very same PPG “Gold Rush” paint used on the full size E85 Ethanol Corvette. When viewed at different angles, the paint can appear gold, green and sometimes even purple - and at $4000 per gallon (yes, thats four thousand!) the paint makes for one very special piece of die-cast!

In addition to the amazing paint, the finished product will feature a numbered metal chassis and rubber tires. The production run is limited to just 504 pieces world wide and more than 400 have already been pre-sold! At $99.95 each, this is sure to be a highlight of any collection. Pre-orders are currently being taken at DieCast Alley.

*- Note: The picture shown is of the 1:1 scale Corvette. Pictures of the die-cast model are not yet available, and the final model will not contain the strobe light bar.
