David,
At my office I have a 1/43 scale medal model of my Alfetta GT (used same 
paint as the real car), and a really small "hot wheels" type Giulietta 
Spider.  Can't remember anymore exactly what company made the former, but 
ordered it from a catalog.  Latter was from a collection at "Toys R Us", and 
is really a kid's toy.  My son has a metal 1/18 model by Maisto of the 
current Alfa Spider.  He bought it at Spencer's Gifts.   Is like a Borgo 
model.
