A sedan with some close lookalikes
V5400 is the 2012 Faster Than Ever release. An orange multipack version uses very similar side decoration but swaps these dark, gold-edged wheel faces for bright Y5 wheels.

This release and its companions












Choosing one for your collection
Start at the wheels, then check the pale door graphics for gaps. A warm reflection on chrome is not enough to identify an FTE wheel; compare the spoke pattern as well.
The reference shows a loose car from one side. Ask for the other side and underside when those details matter to the example you are buying.
Collector questions
Can the orange paint identify the release by itself?
No. The orange Y5 multipack is a close match in paint and decoration. Wheel design separates the two pictured versions.
