Model cars. Have any?

Who collects/owns model cars?
What size are they (1:18, 1:43, 1:64)?
What brand of model cars do you prefer and why?

I like the AutoArt models and i prefer the 1:18 models...

I used to have a bunch when I was in jr high and high school. But once I got into college I didn't have time any more for them. Maybe I'll take it up again.

I have well over 50 classic cars, all in 1:64. I like Johnny Lightning brand: they actually have good paint and good quality built in, along with a massive assortment of classics. Oh boy do I have a lot of fun with them, too.

I don't own a single one.


If I had saved all the money I've spent on these things, I'd have money for coilovers by now...

*My camera died, this isn't all of them. There's about 20 more on the muscle car rack. And excuse the dust.

Slightly off topic, but I'm looking for good Lamborghini Countach and Ferrari Testarossa/512TR models. Any suggestions?

Here's my wishlist:

Lamborghini Diablo VT 6.0 2001,
Lamborghini Diablo GTR 1999,
Lamborghini Diablo Millennium Roadster 2000,
Ferrari Enzo,
Ferrari F50,
Ferrari F40,
Porsche Carrera GT,
Pagani Zonda,
Koenigsegg CCR (wonder if there are any with working doors?),
Ford GT,
Hummer H1,
Toyota Supra 1992 (latest year),
etc...

...if there's any suggestions on where to get some of those as well.

Here's a link to the CCR:
