Obviously you have way too much disposable income. lol Wish I could keep buying models at that rate, but unfortunately I've had to calm down.

I didnt know the GTR Test Car had a chrome roof. Thats kinda killed it for me, I think it would have looked way better being all carbon fibre so I think I might have to pass that one up.

Heck, I'll have to pass up alot of stuff atm, because I need to save for the AA Zonda :D

I've noticed a lot of test cars have the chrome roof. Not sure why. I'm slowing it down after I get this last batch of 10 or so cars in and start modding. Mr. Uli Nowak is trying to replicate for me some Vossen VVS CV1 or CV2 wheels so we can start seeing some deep concave wheels to the scale model market.

As for killing it for you....just buy some carbon decals, rough up the chrome, primer it, and lay the decals down. 👍

The AA Zonda is a beauty. Great time to be a supercar collector. Between that and the CCX...my wallet is going to take awhile to recover.

I love that Mustang, I really want the orange one. I think it was Rehagen racing? Anyway, big thumbs up for that one.

Also, I wish a manufacturer would make some of the Fall Line BMW M3's from the continental tire series.


The Rum Bum racing M3 would be cool too.

On a side note:

AUTOart 1/18 Matthew Marsh/Darryl O'Young #68 Noble Group 2005 Porsche 911 (996) GT3 RSR: FIA GT Championship Zhuhai

39.00 On GoMotorBids right now in the get it now section.

I got that Mustang on GoMotorBids for about $45 Shipped. For the price, it is amazing. Definitely could be sold at $110 or so, w/out a complaint from me. Need to get the Yellow one, Parnelli one, and the FR500S Challenge.

As much as people like to knock AA, their Porsche race cars are beautiful, plentiful, and cheap. I love them. Got a few more coming in and will check out GoMotorBids, haven't been on their in awhile.

Very nice looking GTR^.

The 1:18 Kyosho Z4 Coupe arrived from China today. Here are a few shots. Sorry for the poor lighting.


And my collection so far. I'm running out of space!
Next up is a 1:18 AutoArt Mclaren, and a Webber RB6.

Beautiful Z4. While I'm not a fan of the E85/E89 series in 1:1 it's imperative for my collection of Bimmers in the 1:18. I've got a bid ending shortly hoping to snag a Dealer Interlagos Blue Z4M for cheap....few hours left.

I'm holding off on the F1's and the McClarens. Although I've been seeing the Mclaren's going for great prices lately.

Happy Collecting everyone!

Sure they are cool but they're going to be extremely pricey as well. I just had a look at the site, the 1:18 models can cost up to almost USD300.

I prefer getting the T500RS wheel instead with the money :)
 
You mean like this car?

In Citroen's showroom on the Champs Elysees in Paris they were selling 1/18 GT By Citroens. I bought a little one (the same size as Hotwheels cars) made by NOREV.
 
I have the Autoart Xanavi GTR GT500 car sitting at my work desk....I had the option at the time to buy the bare carbon look one but the paintjob was too nice to pass up...
 
If someone could post or PM to me a link to a 1:12 or 1:18 diecast model of the 1999 Toyota GT-One (ts020), I would be VERY appreciative. :D

Thanks
 
Mission impossible to buy the TS020 brand new.
It is a fairly old scale model and it is doubtfull that someone will sell a brand new one.
Secondhand is the way to go, but then they are quite expensive.
I must say that I cherish my two TS020's 👍

My latest pictures.
I really love the carbon print on this Datsun :)
