I want a 1/18 NA Miata and 944, but I can't find any
AutoArt has a Porsche 944 in the pipeline but it might be some years till it arrives

:shock::shock: Holy hell that this is awesome.
I just looked up one of those on eBay... it barely qualifies for the 24h of LeMons price wise.

@c53,
cool purchases :top
@crazy,
yeah the 430 was pricey (actually paid 200 eur) but it still less than a full tank of the real one :lol:

My choice was pretty easy.
silver is to usuall, white to soft, grey is right

Ahhhhhhh the only Ferrari I ever liked :lol:, funny that, hey? Nice, Faultier!
I'm out of town still, but I ordered, a dark green UT McLaren F1 roadcar, and a black Bburago 8C Competizione before I left Toronto, so when I return, both of those should be waiting for me. I'll definitely take pics to post, on my return .
(An orange McLaren F1 LM has popped up on eBay, and I'm now regretting my earlier purchase, but that's life... I will come by another LM some time in the future I hope)

@ Faultier: My mother would shoot me if I had that many models. Nice collection!
I went to Zuffenhausen (Porsche HQ) and I wanted to see the museum but it's still under construction until the end of January
But, I got a 1:18 GT3 RSR:

lol been there before with my other hobbies...Just found out my RSR is an AutoArt exclusive for Porsche dealers. Also picked up a Minichamps BMW 2002 Turbo:
And I've got a UT Models 911 (993) Cabriolet sitting in storage
Hope to get an AA E30 M3, Miura, Gallardo Superleggera, and that nice Kyosho F40 Lightweight.

Apologies for the late delivery, but here are my latest acquisitions. My friend took the pics for me.
Black Welly Alfa 8C Competizione (Only Welly and Bburago make this, so I was forced into the decision, it's not bad considering what I paid for it) :

You can see the imperfection in the right headlamp in this pic, but I don't mind. If it bothers me too much I might sand it off or something.
Next up, a BRG UT McLaren F1 roadcar. This has been long LONG overdue in my collection:

Cheeky pic
I'm really happy with both of these models and am currently inquiring about a Mercedes CLK-GTR race car (AutoART), so I might be ordering one of those in the near future.
One of the things about the McLaren F1, though, is that due to the unique way in which the model was made, the hinges don't allow me to leave the door open. Not only that, I am afraid, that if I open and close them too much, the hinges might rip, so I'm trying to figure out what a good solution to this problem is. I'd love to have the car on display with it's doors open every now and then. Any suggestions?
