Of all the 200 models, it seems over a long time I still have "favorites", like the FACEL VEGA, 917 PORSCHE, LOTUS EUROPA, all FORD GT, and all Can Am cars. What are your favorites ??

My CMC and Exoto Race Cars. Love the fine detail and historic relevance.

and several CMC's

Actually most of my 1/18 because I am very selective what I buy in 1/18.

Without a doubt, my favorites are my custom modifications.  That's mostly because the customizing enabled me to have models that I couldn't have from manufacturers.  However, I have a bunch more that I've never touched that meet "My favorites" distinction!  

Prince was asked what was his favorite song that he wrote.  His answer was, "The last one."  I'd have to say the same with my diecast purchases.  Here is an example. 

RR 3 Qtr Front
RR, 3 qtr rear

I don't have many 1:18s but of the ones I do have, my fave would be the NEO 1949 Cadillac Club Coupe in Madeira Maroon.
