What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

The listing describes the car as 1:24 scale, but does not provide a separate assembled-size confirmation. Its dimensions are listed as 23.4 x 8.4 x 4.8 centimetres, while another size field gives 28 x 7 x 27.5 cm, so the stated dimensions are inconsistent. Confirm the expected finished size if it matters.
