    Cancelled my order with GTS for the LB458 and LBAvey. I got a bit trigger happy last week. I need to keep going back to collecting my must haves. Thats how my previous collection got out of hand.

    A matter of taste, not really necessary to be understood.

    Yeah, good luck with trying to realize how beautiful a car's presence can be with rims rotating over a smooth surface, when the wheels are glued... It's not about "pushing it around on the floor" like toys..

    Models with excellent build quality and details ftw.

    Anyone else think that the MP4-12c is a much nicer looking car than the 650s?

    675lt is nice, but I just can't stand the front headlights. too futuristic. I think the thing that draws people to the car is the headlights. It gives the car personality, and can be compared to eyes of a person. Beautiful eyes attract people on a woman for instance. Beautiful headlights attract people to the car

    Mizen, I dont like it. The car would look much better with the Mp4 front.

    cabinets and diecasts. Let the S2000 be a cruiser to enjoy on the sunny day. You already have the NSX buddy. But a cabinet would allow more modddelssss hahaha

    With the crazy prices of the standard Autoart LFA I have just pulled the trigger on the Nurburgring in orange (which looks like it will soon be hard to get). Crossing my fingers for a re-release of the standard as I dont want to pay $300-400USD.

    Knowing AutoArt, a re-release would probably be $300-$400, by the time they get to it.

    I feel that with a refocus on what I am collecting I am finding that I am getting a lot more satisfaction and enjoyment from new additions. Not just ok got that whats next. I would highly recommend having a think about doing it.

    I am trying to do the same thing myself. It's funny how, in the quest to buy more models, sometimes it feels good to shrink one's collection. It makes you appreciate the models you have that much more in my opinion.

    The time wasters on eBay are not worth the time of day!

    I hate the ones who ask a ton of questions, then say 'oh but the price is too much'

    Well thanks for wasting my time!!!

    exactly what just happened, then he said it was my fault that he wasted my time, I hope this is a one off. I need 100 posts before I can post in here :(. I would rather see models go to likeminded collectors at a fair price.

    Block him from buying.

    It's always the people who ask a ton of questions who never go through with buying!

    If they don't have the money, they shouldn't be looking!!

    Made the hard decision to refocus my collection to Japanese cars only. Benefits of this, may buy 1 -2 new releases a year not 10-12. Ebay here I come with my Euro cars for sale.
