Photos: Pure coincidence, Ron! Hot Wheels Ferrari
I just happened to be working on shots of some models from my ?Lost-but-not-forgotten" hidey hole!
Ferrari 365 GTS/4 1:18 by Hot Wheels

I saw this one on ebay today
It says Hotwheels on the box, but also Kyosho. They may have made them for Hotwheels I'm assuming. Looks nicer than mine, but I'm not familiar with the headlight/facia treatment shown here - always seen the center section painted with lexan light covers, or painted pop-ups on the 1:1.

This is a regular HW model (not Elite) . . .
The Kyoshos I've seen are coupes. Never eyeballed one but the photos I've seen look like very nicely done models.

Kyosho make a very good GTB/4 and a competizione version, but sadly not a GTS/4

George. I am going to need you to post warnings on your photos for me.
You did again. Love the model and the pics so I went to eBay and just found one.
It looks great. Thanks.

Got one of the Kyosho's and replaced the "aluminum" wheels with "real" wires...what a difference!
GREAT MODEL! the black one is more rare than the red and there is also the yellow version but I prefer the red but then all my Ferrari models are red with the exception of the CMC California Spyder which is black. The red and yellow came in both early and late versions. The black only in the late version. The late versions are the USA version with a painted nose and pop up head lights. The early version has the plexiglass nose with covered headlights. The Hot Wheels model is actually incorrect as it was never made this way by Ferrari.

The Daytona is one of my favorite Ferraris...really wish
Kyosho would have released the Spyder (or that HW Elite would completely re-do their slightly off version).
HW Spyder, Kyosho Competiziones & street versions (black).

Hi Steve...got them on ebay. Scaledetails....They have a lot of neat stuff.
They have a set there now. Ebay item number 350733946002. If you decide to buy a set for a Ferrari and it's not a GTO make sure you buy the larger size. They have two and the smaller one doesn't fit the wheel well properly. You also need to cut down the mounting hubs and enlarge the spindle hole they supply with a dremel as they won't fit and protrude too far out. I'll take some pics in the next few days and post them of mine.

Thank-you David. Sounds like a pretty involved process.
