Its a small North Carolina company that only usually makes 1:24 american cars.

The car is handmade and only 450 of them exist... heafty $400 price tag but you can find used ones on ebay for $250-$500.
 
Many bad things have been said of wholesale diecast models. Check the Diecastxchange forums.

Not sure if they have improved their business but I worry about it.

I ordered three cars from them at once several months ago and received them all fairly quickly. Seems fair to me.
 
Just check it out there. I dont even need to say anything once youre done reading it.

Same story with that German store that stopped delivering Exoto because thw service was so bad. When I ordered from their factory I got it the same week.
 
Oh there has been someone listening! Ebbro is going to release the Gazoo Toyota GT86s N24 from 2012, and some rather nice 2012 SuperGTs, including the triple A Vantage in its 2012 livery along the Prius :) Happy shopping from the end of January. That's three models I'm getting, already have preordered one GT86 from HK.
 
Warning, lots of pics. I'm seriously hooked on collecting. :scared:
These pictures are a bit older, so some newer models have arrived.

It's an AutoArt, Porsche 917 'Long Tail'. This was entered in 1970 by the Martini Racing Team, #3. It has a 4.5l flat 12. Finished second place with Gérard Larrousse (French) and Willi Kauhsen (German) behind the wheel.

That's awesome looking!

I've seen the actually car, it's owned by a former surgeon in Philadelphia, PA. He took his entire collection and made it a museum. The 917 is one of many amazing and rare cars he's got.

Dam you!

I have the Nissan and Mclaren, but not the Mazda... I Just cant find it right now.

I also have the ford gt, which you seem to be missing...

Autoart%20Ford%20GT%20LM%20Test%2080514%2002.jpg

That GT is on my to get list. Did they make a white one aswell? I also have the R34 GTR Gran Turismo Pace car in 1:18 and I have ordered a Vettal X2010 and a Prototype X2010 in 1:18.

Yes they do also make the white Gt.
I only have the black one.
Ive sbeen considering the r34 and I ordered the carbon x2010 too! (Not the red bull livery)
 
@ Ramanujan. Alfa collection = :drool: (especially all the Martini livered ones)

Just noticed you have a Lancia ECV too. :drool:

[EDIT] Your entire collection = :drool:

I don't suppose you have a blue 'Grundig/Chardonnet' livered Lancia 037 ,or a red 'Martini' livered 037 in your collection?, if so i would love to see it/them.

@At 1ness, thanks !

Than both ecv1 from bizarre. And some build kits, two are already in the pictures of the page before this with a smts sz and rz.

The 037 i only have in 1/64 from cm's. I will check if i got the version you asked. (But don't think so)

They are here one the manufacturers site.
http://www.cmscorp.jp/w/products/index.html

I don't think the two versions you seek are there. I have a blue stratos with that livery but not a 037.
 
Raman, your collection is massive!!! And I can tell you're a Alfa, Honda, Lancia and a rally fan with these cars! I love it, especially the S2000s that you have. Real jelly. :eek:👍

I see some Matchboxes and a few Hot Wheels, why do you come visit the HW and MB thread sometime? :)
