if you want blue, you'll have to settle for a Hot Wheels 1:18. its not that bad, but its a far cry from something like auto art and kyosho. the hotwheels ones usually go for about 17$ i got an orange and blue one at a walmart near me (as well as a bunch of others.... i like to collect 1:18 and 1:25 cars

Bah! So much for accuracy! Look at the driver's inside door - it has the chrome door handle that only the passenger's side door should have! Boo......

All in good fun folks.

Nice model. I want to get a Silverstone RC Z if it's even available.

The Hotwheels ones are not that bad at all...my biggest complaint is that the hatch/trunk doesn't open. They don't have springs either so I can't lower the car...I usually lower my 1/18 scales by reversing the springs.

All the Tamiya 1/10th scale 350z RC cars come unpainted. You'd have to get a can of Gunmetal RC paint.

In Chinatown San Francisco there was a gift shop that had these wind up 350z's for like two bucks each. They were cheesy but it was fun lining them up with Skylines, IS300's and Beetles!

Hey what up bat? I haven't gotten it yet... with this transition from 03 to 04's I want to weigh the whole situation..prices, features, liquidations etc. Quite possible this early fall if any transaction is to be done.

How bout you?
