1:18th Scale Die-Cast Models

[Exotic118]

Hey guys, I haven't posted here in awhile.

I just received this one last night. It a new 1/18 model from Hotworks.

I just finish taking some quick pics of mine throught the conversion to the Techart GT Street.

Damn where can you get 1/18 Hotworks models from?? Do they have other cars??

[Exotic118]

Hotworks had just started making 1/18 models called the 'Auto Pro Shop Series'. This is the first one of 2 to arrive. The other one is a blue Bilstein Porsche which I didn't buy. They are also going to be releasing the Porsche Turbo in Silver and White.

Right now, the Porsche is the only one available in this series. Other will be available in the future.

I got this one off of Ebay for $43. For me it was worth every penny.

Yeah I saw that on eGay (lol, edited probably) too. If they are able to keep Auto Art quality but still have the customization like that they will be very rich people very fast.

are those hot works as well?

[Exotic118]

No, the Ferrari F430 Coupe and Maserati MC12 are both from Hotwheels and the 25th Anniversary Countach is made by Ricko.

Right now, Hotworks only makes the Porsche 996 Turbo/Techart in 1/18 scale.

I've seen it in real life, and I have to say, I was dissapointed. The paint on the car itself was abysmal, and there was next to no detail whatsoever. It was cheaply built, and it showed. It's a shame that no-one like AutoArt or even Maisto builds any Paganis.

You can kinda tell in the pics it's a shitty model. No offense exotic.

[Exotic118]

No offense taken.

Unfortunately, Motormax is the only manufacturer of the Pagani Zonda in 1/18 scale. While they got the shape of the car down fairly well the quality of the model is quite poor. I have spoken with a representative of Gateway Global (Autoart) about the Pagani Zonda and they are looking into it. But whether or not they ever to make it is beyond me.
