Porsche model thread


Recommended Posts

Just found this at my local Iga supermarket.  I felt a bit dirty buying it but i just luvs me hot wheels porsches.  There's an urban outlaw 911 too but I haven't found it yet.

never knew magnus had a 356 outlaw.......I think hot wheels went to the wrong La custom design shop.

I have a self imposed ban on buying one or two until I've finished the car

that went well.......

...so do I but with prices like that it's extremely hard to not throw it all out the window...! The good intentions not the models!

...have to sell my 800+ hotwheels first ! *sigh*

Strewth Lee, your not making this easy. I said to myself that I wouldn't buy another model this month, but there are some good priced models from this seller.

It only took me 5 hours to find another model I've wanted for ages and buy it. As I mentioned above, I am hopeless :rolleyes:

This is where/ when it all started! A Tamiya 928 model kit. I never actually bought it (maybe I should now, but holding off for the full sized version :) ) but had it in a Tamiya catalogue and spent many  a hour dreaming about it.... catalogue sadly gone now...

I knew I couldn't resist, this is my latest 1/18 acquisition.

I'm happy with this particular model, but I don't know if I would buy a GT Spirit model again. They are definitely not the same quality as say a Minichamps, they are somewhere between a Maisto & Universal Models.

Just asking , would anyone be interested in Ninco and Fly scalextric cars , Most never run or been out of boxes , also pretty damn good models..

Im packing house and in all reality had em 15-20 years and aint gonna ever use em.

I can get more specific , probably 50-100 bucks arena at a guess , will get more specific if someone interested , I will say this , clear boxes aint perfect .. but intact , not broken , just had dust and shit on them, cars are clean . I will have a count up

The price of electric vehicles in outrageous these days

Awesome.  Looks to be the same Tamiya kit right?  When did you build yours?  Were you torn on using the decals?  If I die without a blue Porsche with gold BBSs then I will do so incomplete.

Yes, a 1:12 Tamiya kit.  Started building it in 1980 and finished in about 2000.  Sat in various wardrobes in various houses as I moved around.  Just no time to get to it. They made this model in 1:12 die cast too, assembled and part assembled.

I didn't use the decal because I was going to make it into a "Moffat" 934.

But now I play with this, but my wife won't let me keep it in the lounge room
