Poor value

#17 of 18 Speed Champions sets under 200 pieces

Second to last of 18 small Speed Champions sets. At $14.99, the 458 Italia GT2 gives about 72 pieces per $10 against a typical 85, roughly 9% less plastic per dollar than its group, and a 3.8 rating that trails most similar sets. No single number is dreadful, but none of them helps.
