I don't have it either Bob! Roman Red was first. DM issued it 1/1/97. Next was the Silver numbered limited edition issue date 6/1/2005. Then came the reissue in black as of 8/30/2005. Then this guy:

1962

Corvette

Convertible- Ltd Ed

Honduras Maroon

DM1651

5/20/2011

The Honduras Maroon version was never issued. The model was announced in 2011 and officially cancelled in July 2012. It was shortly after that announcement that DM ended complete model production.

The knowledge base on this site is phenomenal.

@jcarnutz Wow, hard to believe the end of DM diecast was that long ago.   I can't imagine how many models I'd have if things had continued!
