...actually, not ghetto enough probably... LOL
(see, I live in Richmond, close to Oakland and I see SUVs with spinners daily... now where do you think they make such money to afford such things...? Hmmmm?)

I can't find any of these cars anywhere. Went to evey place mentioned on this site...nada. So I went to the Maistro's website and (hah!) ordered me up one of them bad boys from the warehouse in Sacramento! I'll be getting it by tomorrow (?). But really, whoever gets a hold of them for $9.95 should buy them up, I'm sure we'll all buy a few more from ya!

Hey Bat, its a Yat Ming Z offered by one of the vendors they supply. For $19.95 you can get one delivered to your door. The only colors that are available are silver (CS) and blue (DB).

How does this compare in quality to the 1/18th Hotwheels models? How is the paint quality?

Man, I wish they sold them up here in Canada for that price. They're going for $32US + $10 shipping on ebay.
A few are at $17 on ebay.
The Maisto one right?

my gf in chicago said there were Silver and Orange Zs there
i got a DB Z three weeks ago here at my local costco...
imho.. the maisto DB is the best color match so far to the real DB.
oh yea.. it was on the bottom row, absolute bottom one too!. i basically had to tip over the entire stack to find it...
they had H2s, SC430, Muraceligo, the other 'cheaper' lambo, Z4, Z06, Carrera 4S Targa, Porsche Carrera GT supercar, Enzo, SVT mustang, s2000, new viper and a few older american cars..

The Maisto 350Z at Costco is also available at Sam's Club for the same price. The quality and detail level from best to worst Manufacturer's for 1:18 scale is: AutoArt, Kyosho, Minichamps, Yat Ming or Road Signatures, Hot Wheels, Maisto, and then Welly.
