I have a TSM Ford GT and to me, and that McLaren's quality looks a lot worse than my GT.
In what ways? I'll need some details on what you see that hurts the quality. Same thing with the Ford.

I'll be honest I don't quite see the issues you mentioned with this model. However since this is a pre-production model issues could surface later but that would be a separate issue altogether. I don't think I currently own any of TSM's models, but based on what people have shown me they have been pretty faithful.I don't know how to describe it but overall it doesn't look quite right. Like the headlights don't seem to be as well made and the faux panel gaps look huge.
Here's my Ford GT.

I really like the Lexus GS-F. And I'm considering getting the one on Amiami that's about $113. Never bought a Kyosho before, anything I should know about Kyosho 1/18s?
They can range from really nice diecasts (many of their Ferraris and Lamborghinis) to poor (their 1990's stuff like the Supra, RX-7, and Miata). Their low cost resin line Samurai is made by GT Spirit, while I forgot who makes their expensive resins. They also have a line of somewhat inexpensive ($80 USD) sealed diecast cars under the line Ousia.I really like the Lexus GS-F. And I'm considering getting the one on Amiami that's about $113.

How much will I need to fork out for this?C'mon IG. Make this in 1:18
1500 produced too according to that plate.
^ Oh yes, Kyosho High-End is the top notch stuff. That Ferrari 250 GTO is one of their most recognized products in the collector community.
Thanks for mentioning this. My Cobra was probably from this. IMO If you're going to move up to a scale that's more costly than your /64s, /43s and /24s, I wouldn't go half-way on this, @MedigoFlame. Get yourself something you can be proud of dropping the extra money on down the road.
I guess that doesn't answer your question about the quality of the Lexus though. I guess you ought to look up as many non-official photos as you can find, be it from owners or eBay listings.
edit: here I'll even do that for you:
Solid grills!!!1111
Clean-cut edges on the tail lights. That's good. GT Spirit start to drop the ball on this feature.
Is that diffuser supposed to be glossy?
I'll leave this to your judgment. I don't pay much attention to interiors.
Metalflake painted wheels. I think that's accurate to the real thing, no?
Oh. And that ride height. Look about right?

That bronze may be a reflection?
I don't know if I can justify spending over 200 dollars for a 1:43 scale car... Maybe a 1:18 but that's about it. I could try finding a Kyosho Beads model for a much cheaper price. I know it's smaller but most of my cars are 1:64, so it would fit nicely.That bronze may be a reflection?
About $200 or so? I see some 1:43 R32s at 169, and others at 300.
Best to pre-order IG's because they shoot up rapidly after release.
Do you know about the one made by Paudi Model? Here is one in white.Some really nice models being displayed here.
Was wondering if you guys have perhaps seen a 1:18 model of the latest Peugeot 3008 SUV preferably in white. I know Norev makes a 1:43 in blue and in copper but I have yet to find a 1:18. If you know of one I'd appreciate to hear about it!
Thx for that - yep I know about that one but ALAS, that's the older 3008. I guess I'll have to wait 6m-12m and see if a manufacturer is going to make it.Do you know about the one made by Paudi Model? Here is one in white.
YES PLEASESales update from CK:
71 EUR
There's other R32s as well.
