An updated more-authentic deco scheme of the prototype on the model.  Can't argue with that.

Ok, but since they totally revised the artwork, they could have at least used different numbers. No?  :|  That seems like the point of this thread.
. . . 42 . . .

If they are working from a prototype photo?  Toss-up call.  My choice is to be faithful to the prototype and not change the number to avoid duplicating a 25-year-old release.  It's not as if the first item is a recent offering.

Having the same number on the two releases would stop me from buying the newer car if I already had that road number.

Seeing how the older car still has Rapidos on it, does it even get any track time???
