I rarely post, but I read the forums everyday. I have slowed down in my 1:43 car purchases, so I'm trying to be much more selective of those that I chose. Anyway, so far I have a pre-order for the Matrix Daimler "Blue Clover', but it's been on pre-order for many months and don't know when it will come in. Other replicas that interest me in the 1948 Lincoln Continental by Neo and the 1948 Packard Custom Super Clipper by CMF. I've never heard of CMF, and if anyone can tell me about this brand and the quality of it's replicas, I'd appreciate it. And any opinions about the reissue/repaint of the New Brown Metallic Lincoln Mark IV? And any other suggestions about new releases, please let me know.

Blue Clover
Greg,
Unfortunately, the Matrix Daimler Blue Clover sold out from the manufacturer many months ago, so your preorder will never arrive.
Best to search eBay or Amazon or the internet in general and buy one if you see one offered anywhere at any price.
Good luck. It's a lovely model.

YES! I just got lucky. I found one that is presently in stock and placed my order.
My bad. I meant the "Stardust" Daimler. I'm still looking for the "Blue Clover."

I meant the Daimler "Stardust", which I just ordered. Still looking for the "Blue Clover."

Greg, like you, I've been slowing my purchases, but I am now awaiting the 1948 Packard Custom Super Clipper by CMF. I just ordered it this morning. I've got my fingers crossed for quality!
