Spent about 110 on this model and I love it. I collect diecast cars as a hobby I have around 80 now and am running out of room but this nismo is definitely my favorite along with the supra. The supra was was most expensive purchase. They are hard to find it cost me around 270 but that baby stays in a dust proof case.

anyway here are the pics.










The nismo model car is officially the fairlady z 380rs. That is why it doesnt have the dark wheels and no red seats. It only comes in silver or white. And the official color of the car is pearl white, it isnt PPW.

If you want me to take any pics at other angles let me know.

Hope you guys enjoyed

 

Pretty sweet where did u find it?

Cheaper than on ebay. I wish they had red. I'm thinking of taking mine to a body shop and having them spray it nogaro red.

My neighbor has a Lamborghini Gallardo and he has is 2 tone where the top is black and bottom half is orange and i bought him the diecast version of his car and he had is painted to match his real car and it looks really nice.

 

Haha I have the same Trig book

 

man thats funny. your like me you notice the most random stuff. oh i just sold it on half.com for 70 bucks! you should list it

 

I have the silver version of the 380RS. Great model.

 

beautiful purchase. i like how its very well detailed, do it have a nismo plaque too?

 

you know what...i didnt even realize to check im going to look right now.......no plaque.

but are the fairlady nismo 380rs's limited production in japan as well?

 

It'd look better with some coilovers...jk looks cool! I used to collect hotwheels when I was a little kid...if that counts

 

God AUTOart makes such nice models.

I like their 1:18 scale and 1:8 scale race cars.

great buy!

POST YOUR COLLECTION NAO

 

JDM nismo Z's never came with them.

 

Pretty cool, I must say. A lot of detail.

 

 

ohhh. so is it just a nissan thing in america? i dont know much about the nismo version. i remember reading a thread about how many us version(?) where made, but i dont remember the answer. enlighten us wise one

 

Very nice model! I wish they had one in MB!

During 07-08 there were only just over 1600 cars made. I am not sure the exacty number.

 

I want to say it was exactly 1607. But not 100% sure

 

I wonder how many of those are left! Every wreck, my car because rarer and rarer, but it's still sad to see a NISMO wrecked.

 

^^^^luckily there are people who salvage consoles, plaque #'s.... nah i kid, i wont go there lol

 

Yes

Close, the last one made for the U.S. was 1606.

Why not just buy the Tamiya kit?

 

I love Tamiya models.

but Autoart is badass for diecast. I still have a Porsche 911 GT2 (993 style!) laying around somewhere.
