Re: Ferrari GTO!!!!

3 of my favorite Ferraris....the 599 looks ginormous next to the other 2.

Re: Lola-Aston Martin B09/60 #007

Love the Gulf livery on this (though it looks great in other liveries, too). I have the Norev version (sealed & doesn't steer).

Very nice...I have AA's version, which is nicely done (but not much cheaper, if you can find the Exoto on sale).

Re: Does anyone have these models?

Mattel's official photographs tend to be pretty awful...these 512s look much better in person and look very credible next to more expensive models - not toy like In my opinion. My main (and pretty much only) critique is the the ride height is a bit high, but you could fix this if it was too bothers...

Re: Under-appreciated Models you MUST have...

If I remember correctly I paid $80 for this work of art. This is when Kyosho was the IT manufacture. that's about right...I bought all 3 at different times/places, but have less than $180 in my set of 3 (including shipping). There are more coming from Kyosho...another #64 with a ducktail spoiler & ...

Re: Under-appreciated Models you MUST have...

The Norev 997s. There are plenty of selections, and they are very nice. Many can be found for $50. Hell, I put a couple up for auction and they sold for $30 or so. I regret doing so, but that happens. I was lucky to get one of them! Good call on the Norev 997's. I have 3 & love 'em. My choice is Ky...

Kyosho BMW E82 135i Sport Dealer Edition

Another Craigslist find from last month. I'd been holding out for a 1M (Otto, maybe?), but couldn't pass up the deal, especially for a DE in Sapphire Black. The original wheels are a bit small, but actually look a lot better in person. Member BMW Fan (Jason) listed a set of E92 wheels for sale & I s...

Re: 2014 GMP | ACME News

Love that Chevelle (uses the old Lane Exact Detail mold).

Nice Shelby as well (also a Lane mold), but those wheels never did anything for me.

Re: FERRARI V8 - Mondial 3.2

very tempted to add this one (& then sell my Mondial 8). The styling updates really improve the look, In my opinion. Nice engine detail too.

Re: Post Your Latest DIECAST Purchase

Got this little gem by Autoart. Pretty good deal at 80 euro, considering most of them are going for 200+. Only flaw is that the rear clamshell support rod is missing, and I honestly don't care, it can stay closed! http://s26.postimg.org/8xs5ugay1/917.jpg this was one of the first batch of AA 917's ...

That's the 328 I'd like to get...GTS with black interior.

Re: FERRARI V8 - 328 GTB

I never liked the styling on the 328 as much as the original 308...too smoothed over for my tastes.

I have Anson's old 328GTS, but wouldn't mind picking up the Kyosho at some point (or Hot Wheels Elite, if they ever decided to release one).

Re: REVIEW: Hot Wheels Elite Ferrari 599XX Evo

Great review, KRAFTIG. I never got around to getting the XX, so am very tempted by the Evo.

Either looks like one of Hot Wheels Elite's best efforts.
