Got My 1/18th Scale, Daytona Blue Z!
Just picked up my Hotwheels 1/18th Scale Daytona Blue 350Z! I was really surprised to find it in my favorite color
I'll post pics in this thread soon

SWEET! I'm still looking for a Daytona Blue. Haven't found one anywhere.
Did you order on line or did you find it at a store?

I found it at a local hobby shop. It's not even listed on Hotwheels website.

There are 2 1/18 Blue ones on eBay. Too bad they only show a picture of the real car, not the model. $22.95 plus $10.95 shipping! Yikes!!
I wonder if HotWheels quality is as good as AutoArt. I think I'll wait...

Batmobile, how does the paint look? Is it close to the real Daytona Blue in color? Does it have a good finish?

Those are available on Ebay all the time... do a search on "350z" and then either look for it/scroll down, or look for the sublink "toys and collectables" (or hobbies and toys..something like that). NOW, I have a question: does anyone know if there is a TRACK version??? I want a model with the Ray wheels and aero kit. thanks~!

Every model I've seen so far has the 6-spoke wheels, and I've done a lot of looking.

Quality of paint appears to be excellent. I haven't taken it out of the box yet. I'll take pics tomorrow and post them up on this thread. Stay tuned

I saw the model. To me, the color looks a little darker than the real Daytona Blue.

I plan to buy a 1/18 Z, and a 1/18 Fast and furious Supra, and then swap the M5 rims from the Supra onto the Z.

Actually, I'm surprised no black ones have ever been released as of yet
