I first got the original 1998 New Edition Deuce in black with flames and hideous Sawblade wheels. Also known as Directional Wheels (DW), there is not one casting with these wheels that I'd pay money for, unless it is a New-for-the-Year casting. They are just incredibly cheesy. These wheels detract so much from the original casting that I just threw it in the 1998 stash and pretty much forgot about it. Then the 2016 Retool/recolor in red came out. It took my breath away. ZZ TOP-gorgeous!!! That new shiny red enamel with much nicer flowing flames just gives the car a totally different character. I kept saying to myself: "I've got to feature it online somewhere!". Then, to go for the kill, Matty released a metallic blue recolor in the K Case. Awesoooome! This car is not only a looker, but it is also a great racer on the track. This is definitely a huge improvement from the original, almost 20-year old casting. Man, time flies!...I"ll leave the original in the box. It'll make the world a better place. The red and the blue are to be displayed. Definitely in the mancave, maybe in the office. But then my co-workers' kids will come in and insists they must have them. Can't blame them.
