    Living is Australia, I am totally cheering on the 2 Holdens and the insane 7 second Valiant Charger. There is also a Capri, but I can't go for a Ford. There is a group of Aussies that flew out there, bought a clapped out Chevelle, fixed it and running the week. Too cool of a vacation!!!

    ^ I used to think that way, but now I'm getting into it more. I suppose it's the reverse of F1, which I used to enjoy, but now it's starting to become a bit dull to me.

    Golf's one of those things where it's like I like to play it, but I hate watching it. It's kinda like baseball.

    Finally got around to buying an AUTOart GT-R, just a plain old normal version in silver. The plan was to get it painted Bayside blue at some point, but it looks so damn good in Silver.

    I am not sure but side skirts might be different as well.

    The changes made for the second release are:
    - Body colored side skirts instead of black
    - Gunmetal grey rims instead of Gloss Black
    - Black brake calipers instead of yellow
    - Rear Lamborghini photoetched script is positioned a little lower down for some reason.

    I had the first release and painted it matte pink. This was right after release and there was no thought of them becoming to expensive. I want to get the second release, but it looks like a few changes will be made; side skirts and calipers. The metal rims might be OK. I'll have to see it in person. Photos do not show this off well. Thanks for the info

    Do not expect your For Sale threads to be approved if you have only come here to sell your models. We are a community, not eBay.

    Well, I've made a thread sale and it hasn't been approved, but I know that's because of some rules I don't fit in now. Maybe, in the future, it will be approved. Some don't understand that rules are necessary, otherwise there will be anarchy everywhere (and that's not good) :/

    I just paid for a model I thought I would never get a chance to own. I have bought a lot of very cool and unique models lately, but this is very special to me. Now the month or so wait for its arrival.

    I bet it's one of those special editions with BBS rims or something like that...? Sorry I'm not much into those special versions, only thing I know is that those Japan-only versions are rare!

    I might be crazy. But, with the popularity of GT Spirit and the registry threads, would you be interested if I did a Porsche GT Spirit Registry Thread?

    After watching F&F7, I asked my wife what her favorite car from the series was. Her answer was the Jensen Interceptor. She is awesome.

    I said, favorite from the series (all of the movies) and after watching the 7th. Jezz, no one pays attention.

    Looking at my Agera and I am not too impressed. Many of the "flaws" people mention about the HWE LF are prevalent with my Agera.

    mine doesn't have any. At first I thought panels and doors didn't fit properly, but they just needed to be pressed in all the way

    That's really disappointing. Buying diecasts is such a crap shoot lately, especially since I no longer have a local brick-and-mortar store to see and buy new releases. I am really thinking about selling several of my diecasts, limiting diecast purchases, and sticking with reasonably-priced resin models like OTTO and GT Spirit. I won't be able to collect everything, but at least I'll enjoy what I collect.

    Rain? I saw no rain. The V8s were right afterwards and it was very bright and hot out. I saw a lot of comments online about rain but there was no sign of it.

    I received three models today, and all three were damaged in a way. I can fix one, but the other two will have to be returned. What a shame.

    From a seller in Hong Kong, a GTS Porsche 964 Turbo S (amethyst). One of the exhaust tips came off and will be easy to fix.

    The other two were 1/43 scale; a Minichamps Bugatti 57 and a Spark Aston Martin Vantage LM 600. I won't say who it is from until the returns are complete. I will say they were well packed. Just unfortunate.
