Good thing is how cheap they have remand over the years.

I've been meaning to pick up a 370 but can only find a silver one.

I remember I used to rear apart my Hotwheels and slam 'em! Or just bend the axles and end up with nasty oni-kyan. I was into stance before it was cool.

His legacy will live on in the form of die cast cars! RIP, best wishes to his family.

I'm planning on picking up a few acrylic 12 car display cases so I can display the boxed cars properly.

I might add another shelf in the cabinet. I already had another one made, but its full now. I think it has room for 1 more.

So, how many 1:18 scale do you have? I have around 250 of them.

I found this red UT Ferrari F355 GTS in a parts bin at a local flea market. It was in pretty poor shape when I got it but I was able to fix her up.

my collection is at about 50. I only really collect ferraris/Mas + lamborghinis, and then the odd specialty car, like Bugatti, Zonda, GTR, GLK-GTR, S7, DB9R etc. Mostly just into the supercars. This keeps my spending to a minimum....otherwise you could go nuts buying these things lol

Same here, I used to buy everything I saw in 1:18th but now my collection is geared to mostly Porsche, Ferrari, and Lamborghini. Right now I'm waiting for the new 1:18th Autoart LP670-4 SV to arrive.

What I would also like to see is for Autoart to model the 370Z and Nismo 370Z in 1:18th. I do have the Autoart Nismo 350Z but it doesn't appear that they or any other manufacturer will be doing the 370Z in this scale.

I'm also waiting for the LP 670-SV. Theres a couple companies that make it right now but its going for around $500. I think the Autoart one will be around $120-$150. Don't think I'm going to grab a Z though since the 1:1 scale will be sitting in my garage in a couple weeks lol
