I purchased this from a local auction site called Mac Bid’s. This is a 1/24 scale Lexus LX 570, made by Che Zhi. I believe I paid about five dollars after all the auction fees, and this is remarkable as that you can see all the opening features but it also has operating lights and a horn if you press on the steering wheel. Really is a nice rendition of this Lexus.

That's really cool! Love the lights and horn. I have seen some SUV's sold from China, like this but they were 1/32nd. All had the opening doors too with working lights. Not sure about the horn. All the panel gaps are tight too!

@perrone1 Yes I also got a Tesla Model Y that they listed as 1/24, but turned out to be 1/32. Not as many features though.

Does look pretty neat. I have been interested some of the newer SUVs, but for now I only have this Motormax explorer that I have Missouri HWP decals for.

well done John. Its amazing what is actually out there in 1/24 isn't it?
Hachette et al are now producing a series of 1/24 Abarths. I've added one from the 50s and have 2 more 50s cars on the way.
I just wish M2, our Australian DDA or Chinas Century Dragon would have a go at 1/24 U.S, and global car models, like this Lexus!

Any chance they may have a '57 Oldsmobile in the works?
