Well I haven't been that lucky with my Maisto local findings.

GT90 and XJ220 are quite good additions to a collection, you should be happy you have those. :)
 
I don't much like Ertl, I want to get a model of the Dukes o Hazzard General Lee, and the only model I've seen is by Ertl. Only thing is it doesn't look that good, if AA made a General Lee, then I would be happy.

What's a fair price? The going price on eBay? 💡

Hey guys it's been a while. I got a couple of new models and I'll be posting pictures soon.

People like you guys and posts like that make me happy I have my 22B 👍. Twistedspoon, you told me the 22B was selling for 250$ on ebay. Was that USD? I got it for 80$ CDN :)

Lucky little...... person! :dopey:
Yeah the 22B is getting harder to find, so prices are going up when people sell them off on eBay. Don't forget to post some pics of your 22B! :sly:

Congratulations on getting the 22B. $80 CAD makes the deal all that sweeter. 👍

£125, my lord! The one I'm watching on eBay is currently at £51 and hasn't even hit the reserve yet. I can see I'm gonna have to part with some serious cash to get a 22B in my posession

Haha yeah I'll post pictures of it probably thursday or friday. I got it 6 or 7 years ago, I knew it was a rare car in real life, but I never thought it would get rare in 1:18 :).

Over the years, dust accumulated on it, but I managed to clean 95% of it away. When twistedspoon told me it was selling very expensive on ebay, I felt bad because I didn't treat it well :nervous:. But then I learned that many people on this forum don't cover their cars, so I was all right:dopey: .

Now I'm trying to cover all my cars with acrylic covers because I found a guy that makes them for cheap:tup:.

The pictures are coming!

This is incredible man, I wish I had enough spare time to build this : being a full time student takes all my time, especially in my field of studies 👎.
I hope one day it'll all pay up and I'll have the time to build those :)

I got news from one place that sells 1:18 in Montreal and they told me the Red/Black Veyron was going to be produced, and was scheduled for selling on march : anybody can confirm?

My new acquisitions. 3 Limited Edition Porsche GT3 Cup Cars. :)
D*mn dude. You could have your own little racing set if you wanted too.:sly:

Apparently, I'll have to wait a few days for my MC12, AMV8 and C6 Z06. They're getting a few in pretty soon.

Haha I have no choice but to have a social life with a girlfriend like mine hehehe. No I'm kidding she's a wonderful girl, plus she supports 100% my car passion. I'm even taking her to the F1 race in Montreal this summer. With a 360$ price for the tickets, you can tell she's becoming just like me.👍

Oh wait that was off-topic.
 
Arg! ive done it again! :lol: i saw this model on ebay and just couldnt resist!

Muira JOTA SVR

Edit: Check out that ebay shop for some more goodness :)

I know its pink but its just so sexy :drool:



This'll be my first Kyosho model and from the pictures it looks pretty detailed i must say, only time will tell.
 
Holdenhsvgtsr
thats not bad im tryin to drag mine along to lemans this year......not workin so far plus donno if ill get enough funds for it too :(

Off-topic : well you know, they all change some day. Give her time and it'll happen. When we met, my gf couldn't distinguish between a Ferrari and a Corvette. Now she can tell if the Lexus is an IS300 or a GS430, or an SC430. Not bad for a girl who didn't know anything right?👍

Miura :drool:
Thanks for sharing the seller, she seems to operate in the UK, which is good for me, she has a model i want. lol, namely a certain BMW. :dopey: :dunce:

EDIT:: BIG NEWS EDIT, I've won the AutoArt Subaru Impreza 22B that I was watching on eBay and I got it for £75.00 Thats gotta be a bargain considering I've seen the 22B go for over £100!! I'm going model mental on eBay, first the #51 Viper, then a ViperGTS (seller still needs to tell me shipping price) and now this Impreza 22B. I'm watching a few other items so if I win them, I'll take a few pics to show.

OHO! You lucky sod! :lol: well £75 is still way over the retail price but since its so rare ill let you off ;) hope you enjoy owning one of the most difficult to obtain models on the market 👍, cant wait til the Muira gets here :sly:

EDIT: just in case you wanted one its been Re-listed

The Red/Black Veyron is scheduled for release by Autoart but I'm not sure about its ETA. There are some major differences between the concept and the production car though. Make sure you know which one you like before you buy one. 👍
 
lol that JOTA Muira just looks wrong, either get rid of the spoiler or put the spoiler at the back of the car.

D*mn dude. You could have your own little racing set if you wanted too.:sly:
Actually, I do have a set of 996 GT3 race cars. This is a picture was taking in June 2005. You might have seen it before but I've posted it again just in case you haven't. I'll have to take an updated picture sometime since I've bought another 5 or 6 GT3 race cars since then. 👍

and the best one in my opinion is the plain body white version. :drool: Plain body versions of race models seem to look awesome. The plain body WRC Impreza looks just as sweet as the GT3. Nice collection of Porches.

From that angle the spoiler doesnt look as bad as it was in the other pics. The detail in the engine bay looks impressive.
 
Holdenhsvgtsr
it looks good but at the same time it looks wrong :p

I dont have a problem with how it looks, though where that spoiler is is a little odd. Its not just a cosmetic modification though so im quite happy to leave it as is, and plus it gives the car character, you certainly wouldnt mistake it for a 'normal' miura (as normal as a miura can be!) :rolleyes:

That it does :) which is one of the factors that made me buy it! The auction that i won didnt display any engine pics though, so i searched a little and found out from a different auction, but i didnt want a black one because i already have about 10 black cars (out of 30 something). I prefer this outrageous pink that screams 'LOOK AT ME!' :lol:
 
I remember asking what the difference is between AutoArt's 'PROTOTYPE' Viper SRT and their normal Viper SRT, and I've found out for anyone else who is interested:

This [prototype] model however was produced by AUTOart as a "prototype" Viper SRT-10. It has the new interior, wheels and body of the 2nd generation Viper, but it has the older cars 8 litre V10. AUTOart are planning to release a "production" version which will have the correct engine.
 
...And will you be able to tell? uh... probably not. :odd: I still think it's just another way to suck you into buying a second model of what you just bought.
