Very nice indeed. I also have the Devil Z on preorder (my first ever preorder), and will add the red kpgc10.

Yah I think these will look sweet beside each other, the Nissan was a hard desion on color I like the black but you loose all details.... I found a red one at a Canadian vendor so went that way.... Red always looks good lol.


Any of you guys read anywhere if the devil z is going to part of AA composite line the pictures all most look diecast the way the paint sits on the panels under the hood etc...?

OMG I know. I literally sat and looked at pics for half an hour. I ruled out the white. Then I'm like red is too obvious. I liked black the most but it would be invisible on display. I honestly gave up and just left it for another day lol. Then thanks to damnyouebay's damn upgrade thread, I went for silver.

Silver was what I was looking for originally after seeing his review as well.... The red I always fall for red, damnit :shame:

I expect that Devil Z will shoot up in price quick as far as autoarts go...

I like that Corvette too, I have one on watch on ebay in the same colour. They are cheap now, dunno why. Will be silly priced later for sure.

The Devil Z is rumored to be very limited btw, ala the Delorean.

And the tuned GT-R is a safe buy. I have two of the things in silver and will get the red and white too. They just look like Autoart tried, probably because they are based on the much older standard KPGC10, which secretly is a damn nice model car. The only "downgrade" I can see compared to the old one is plastic seatbelts, and the steering wheel is better on the old one. On the other hand the new one has a better looking engine, Watanabe wheels and great looking exhaust.

I think these old Skylines will be hilariously priced on ebay in a couple of years, considering they are the only high end diecast models available, and prices on the real Hakosukas are sky rocketing. Even non-GTR Skylines of this generation are expensive now. Japanese classics in general are gaining momentum.
