I don't understand why AutoArt don't make the 370Z considering they did the 350.

The Diecast industry is struggling. They probably don't see enough demand at the moment to cast a "regular" car like the 370.

I'm definitely waiting on AutoArt/Kyosho to finally put out a 370. I want one really bad.

Here's one I recently added to my collection. It's a Tamiya 1/24 scale kit I put together over the holidays. I painted the fangs and rear valance black and added window tint all to make the 1/24 scale one look exactly like my 1/1 scale one...

Thanks! I used real tint film, had some left over from a tint job I did on my old beater a few years ago. It happened to be 35%, just like what I have on my real car. The only difference is, on the kit I put it put it on the outside. But you have to look real hard to notice.

Nope, but you can turn the front wheels. But I have to say the interior detail is very nice and you can of course see most of that through the windows.

What does that have to do with anything.

Totally agree, I will actually pick one up for my desk at work if they come out with one in my colour!

If you look at serious car collectors (for example at Barret Jackson) the very unique and exciting cars all have models with the car. Just a neat thing to add to your collection!
