Holy balls that was a ton of pictures. Oddly enough, I think I liked the CTS-V the most. Never really seen a die cast of that before. Nice collection!

More to Come

Pops · 11-14-2007, 03:47 PM

it is indeed an awesome collection, but if you dont mind me asking how much do those cars go for and does it vary in price for cetain cars??

phrozen06 · 11-14-2007, 04:00 PM

Most of the 1:18 scale cars of good quality range from 39 to 200 depending on the brand. For example UT models were 34-39 dollars and had amazing detail for the price. Those 993 porsches and E36 bimmers that I posted are UT and UT is no longer in business as they were bought out by Minichamps. Minichamps, Kyosho, and Autoart start at 49 and go to about 75 dollars. On these cars the paint is a little smoother and the detail is more furious. At the top of the Food Chain is Exoto, These cars are priced from 100-250 dollars and the detail shows. The Jackie Stewart Ford and the yellow Renault are Exoto's and the quality is out of this world but you pay for it.

Right now UT Models sell for rediculous prices on ebay because they've been discontinued. Certain models (once discontinued) incur huge price spikes because they're not easily available anymore.

Also if you buy a Dealer Edition of any car it is worth considerably more even if it's the same as a non dealer edition model.

Dealer Editions usually come in a plain black box but is encased in styrofoam. A non dealer edition model comes in a flimsy box that can easily be damaged.
