@michaeldetorrice Thanks Michael. I think this are some of the best, if not the best, cars in my  1:18 fleet!

@chris Thanks Chris! I appreciate your comment. I do have these three as well, just not displayed yet. I have looked at those custom versions, but cannot bring myself to spend the finances to get them, since I am not all that interested in custom versions, but I do have some scattered throughout my collection/scales. Plus, they just seem to for a bit too much.

Agreed, I too prefer "bone stock"  models/replicas and 1:1 cars.    😉

If it is successful for the diecast model manufacturer, then I am all for it, whether I personally like it or not. I can't be expected to like or collect every different replica, or like every option that may or may not be on a diecast automobile.

On the old DCP, I remember a couple of people who were furious and would go ballistic, if a diecast model was released with any color or option (like a "continental" spare tire) that they didn't "approve" of.
