1/18th Scale Model cars

[Darin]

So, what car replica's in the 1/18th scale do you have?

 

[toyomatt84]

I have a few, but they're all at home, so no pictures.

I have:
Lamborghini Diablo
Ferrari Testerossa
Mercedes Gullwing
Porsche 911

 

[Solid Lifters]

I have one. A Daytona Coupe Race Car, and that's it. My boys wanted to play with it all the time, so I had to buy some decoys for them to play with. I want to buy more, but I'll wait for my youngest to get a little older.

It was a pain in the butt to get something I, and the boys, wanted. The problem with collecting these cars are the guys who litterly live on the phone calling local stores, finding out when their next shipment of decent cars is coming in. I called for a 69 Dodge Charger, and the store said they came in last night. When I got there, there was a guy with a shopping cart full of the same model. Ridiculous. I had to grab one off of him, and he starting to scream, "That belongs to me!" I said, "Prove it." I paid for it, and left. That was my last car. I bet this is the same guy selling them on eBay for $25 plus $6 hipping when he only paid $10.

I would probably buy more it it's pain free. Let me know if there is a place that has cool model cars, for not a lot of money, so my boys can play with them. I'm sick of calling Toys R Us, Target, K-Mart, Wal-Mart, etc...

I've got this huge display case I built a few years ago, there's probably 20 cars that fit in it. There are litterally cars everywhere in the appartment.
