What other Hot Wheels Ferraris are there 1/18th?

The 250 SWB comes in red! Here is the link on eBay - it is the same seller. Really good to deal with too.

If you want it in red and you are in the states, i would recommend this guys

Very nice selection of models - many Ferraris, at some of the best prices. Very fast shipping from them too. Newace is a hobby shop in Asia and they are very nice to deal with indeed, but you are paying double the shipping and you are going to wait for the model at least a month.

I am not affiliated in any way with the seller. I just have bought many models from them without ever having a problem.

 

Thanks - Pap and I are in Australia. My models took 2 weeks to arrive and the freight wasn't too bad. I've found freight costs out of the states to Oz is high but we are a long way south..lol!

 

Thanks mate, looks like that was the last one and it sold.

I have the Jouef version. I haven't seen it for years now (packed away), but I don't think it looks as good as this one.

I will have to look at my Jouef one and if it's better than this Hotwheels one, I won't replace it. If it's rubbish, I will buy this Hotwheels version and give the Jouef 250 to the kids to thrash.

Thanks for the link, it looks like a cool model for $100 and it's great to see Hotwheels start making some cool Ferrari models.

Cheers buddy!

 

Hi Pap

Just read about the red 250 SWB gone. I've just had a quick look and there are now 2 available! Here's the new link:

Cheers mate and have a tremendous Christmas and New Year!

 

Thanks mate,

I will leave it for now. I will wait till I check out my Jouef one again and if this one is better, I will buy it and give the Jouef one to the kids to play with.

I hope you have a wonderful Xmas and New Year too Clive!!

 

Just bought the FF in blue (1/18) and in red (1/43) along with the 599 GTO in red/black (1/43). Still yet to buy the 458 in 1/18. Not sure what colour. I do like it in yellow. Any thoughts/recommendations?

 

Nicole bought me this red Hotwheels Elite 1/18 458 for my b'day back in March.

It's actually pretty good value for the money. Looks great in red and just as good in yellow.

I am sure it was under $100 delivered from the USA.

Looks the goods Pap. I'll have to hunt around on eBay for one.

 

The problem is that nowadays the red ones go for up to $200 plus shipping. They are very rare now and you can consider yourself lucky if you can get one for under $150

 

Cheers mate. If I find one, I will let you know. You want a red one or a yellow one?

Wow, didn't realise this. Sounds like I got a deal.

I will keep an eye out for one under $150 or $100.

 

I've decided to go for a red 458 Italia. Found one on eBay that isn't too pricey so hopefully I'll win the auction!

 

Good man! Good luck with it.

 

I wonder if Hotwheels Elite will make a silver FF..!

 

Can't believe this and I think a lot of die cast sellers are smoking crack lately... I came across this HW 1:18 Mangum PI 308 Elite in red on eBay and they have a "Buy It Now" option for $499... REALLY! Another ebay seller had one for auction at $299... Check it out.

I should have bought one when they were selling at $150

 

Lol, interesting!

 

Missed out on this one - bloody time zone difference! Might have to go for a yellow one after all - certainly less expensive.

Got my 1/43 599GTO and FF (both in red) and my 1/18 FF (dark blue) today. Very happy with them.

 

Lol, mate!! You gotta be on the ball!

I have stayed up all night to bid on models. Done that heaps of times.

I even woke my Wife up at 5 am to bid on my Kyosho 512BB for me because I was working nightshifts that night.

You have to do whatever it takes............whatever it takes!!

 

I hear you mate. I should've been up and bidding! Lesson learned!

 

Fixed.

 

Well Pap, I finally ordered a yellow 458 Italia. The red ones were way expensive! I decided that becasue I have a few different colours in my 1/18 collection that yellow would probably work anyway. I have the 458 in black in 1/43 but will get it in red too as I have over 50 red 1/43 road cars. I'll post pics once the yellow car arrives.

 

Cheers Clive, the yellow one looks great.

 

Well, it seems mattel as finally released both the Sebring and the daytona 512s...i´m wayting to get my hands on the Sebring version....

 

Car arrived yesterday and I am very happy with the purchase! Pics to come...

 

Cool man, pics please.
