Auto World New 2003 Nissan 350Z

We really don’t understand why Auto World would introduce another 1:18 Nissan 350Z since the car has been done in scale numerous times already.  I’ve personally have been trying to unload my AUTOart sample for the longest time (no takers either), $75CND for anyone who is interested.   Though I will say their version does have a unique colour, factory Brickyard Red Metallic its called.  It also features diecast metal and fully opening bits.  With the trend nowadays we mostly see sealed stuff.  The 350Z is scheduled for release December 2017.

About the Nissan 350Z…  “Nissan set out to create a sporty coupe to mark the 5th generation of their iconic Z-cars. In 2000, Ajay Panchal of Nissan Design America in San Diego, California designed the 350Z with inspiration from the 240Z concept car that received praise when shown at auto shows the previous year. The result was a timeless front-engine sport coupe still coveted by drifters, track racers, and import car enthusiasts today. It was so popular it even landed a role in one of Hollywood’s largest movie franchises. Nissan sold nearly 37,000 in 2003 alone!”

    What color is your AA 350Z? Is it LHD? If it’s a silver LHD I might be interested as long as there are no defects or damage.

    But ya I agree that this is an odd choice. I’d understand if the models that were made before were not made well (*cough* AA 996s *cough*), but I suppose an affordable alternative for those who still love this car can never be a bad thing. The lack of side windows and the use of dogleg hinges are dated though.

    I had to turn my eyes away from that wheel and tyre combo!!! The horror!

    The only positives I could think of, are the colour and the fact that all bits can be opened.
    Furthermore it’s a low quality and not refined model with dog legs on the doors. Welcome to the ’90s Autoworld…..
