I want 20 bucks if there's one there.

 

[Boost Lee]

I've ordered from Exoticar a couple of times. No FC RX-7.

My offer still stands! If you can find me a 1/18 scale FC RX-7 that is for sale, I'll send you $20.00.

 

[-Fred-]

Doubtful that even exists... Kyosho's FD usually goes for over 130$ on Ebay, same for it's MKIV Supra.

I just ordered this myself, a Pug 206 WRC driven to victory by Gilles Panizzi at the Tour the Corse 02', made by AutoArt, of course.

The detail looks awesome, can't wait to receive it.

 

[Boost Lee]

I know of a place that sells the Kyosho Supra, FD, NSX, and 300zx for $50.00 a piece.

I have the NSX, and can say without a doubt, Auto Art is better in almost every aspect.

Ive got a large-ish collection of 1-18 including quite a special one. I'll post details when I get home as I cant remember them now.

And I need to know how to get photos on the site using my scanner - Ive tried once before but didnt work. I'd like to post a pic of my surprise !!

 

[Jay]

save you pic as bmp, gif, jpg etc
and use this

 

[BigJamesGTI]

I was struggling to make it the right size though ? I remember getting the message that the file was too big ?

Have you given up on the trivia question Viper ?

 

[Jay]

just use photoshop (or similar) to shrink it down and convert it to jpg if its not already.

yeah i guess ive given up. i may not be familer with the model of car?

 

[BigJamesGTI]

OK I'll have a bash when I get home

*** Go to guess that car thread for a clue !!

 

[bondy_1625]

not sure if this is an AUTOart piece or not but with that price i should think so

bently exp speed 8 #8

 

[-Fred-]

It is, that picture is taken from their website. I'd like to have one, but i hate the fact you can't open the hood and the doors...

What i'd really want, however, is one of those Australian Touring cars, like this. Holden! The prices scare me, though.

[Darin]

Heres my Newest add to my collection.

The Bentley EXP Speed 8 2003 LeMans winner!

Its made by AutoArt, and I beleive its a New Release from them.
My next Model Car i'll be looking for is the Gran Turismo Nissan Skyline GT-R R34 Pace Car from Gran Turismo Concept.

 

[VIPFREAK]

That's cool Darin I picked one up too. I hear they have the original one too from 01 or 02?

 

[Darin]

Yep. But I think the '03 model looks better. Im keeping the bentley in its case.

 

[bondy_1625]

oops ignore this!

 

[bondy_1625]

THIS is what i meant to post!

next on my list!

 

[-Fred-]

Got one. You pay for what you get, though.

 

[VIPFREAK]

lol, this sorta counts for a scale car... I was at target and they have this transformers car that actually looks like the new Viper. They want $20 for a freakin transformers though!?

I have one of those, and it aint going anywhere


After the Aus GP in a couple of weeks, I will be adding a HKS and Calsonic R32 GTR's to the stable, as well as a KPGC10 GTR in white

That will bring the Skyline collection to 8, others in the collection:

Axia R32 (Kyousho sp?) (#19 of400), R34 V-SpecII, R34 Pennzoil JGTC, R34 Xanavi JGTC (All Auto Art), R32 Bathurst winner (Biante)
