Ferrari 333 SP by Hot Wheels

It's inevitable that the discontinued Hot Wheels Elite line would steal the thunder from the non-elite lineup.

That's good news for the frugal collector because we now have the chance to pickup gems like Ferrari 333 SP shown here.

As can be seen here, the model has excellent detail too.

The PGC10 is the 1st member of the line that would later on be called Godzilla. The KPGC10, like the current R35, was a giant among lesser automobiles and would quickly establish Nissan as a force to reckon with in both street legal sports cars and racing.

This Autoart model is quite hard to find nowadays and is a must have for collectors of Japanese supercars.

There has been quite a bit of confusion among many collectors in distinguishing the high end model of the Ferrari 250 GTO by Kyosho from the standard version.

So here is a video of the high end version to help in the process.

Mercedes 114 / 115 Strich 8 Coupe Blue Platinum Edition 1/18 Diecast Car Model by Sunstar

Mercedes Strich 8 Coupe Blue Platinum Edition 1/18 Diecast Car Model by Sunstar


This Mercedes model is known in Germany as the "Strich 8" or slash eight in English. This pertains to a practice that Mercedes started where the eight refers to the year of production when the new generation models started which was 1968.

This specific 114/115 model is from 1973 but is still referred to as /8 since it is part of the new generation.

The sedan model of this was especially memorable to me because it was a car that my grandfather which he lent to us to use for several years. It was a most comfortable car and I remember how the doors closed with the security of a bank vault.

The model shown here is the M110 engine which is double overhead inline 6 cylinder engine with a displacement of 2.8 liters.

A real world coupe 1:1 version of this car would be a pricey collectors item.

Kudos to Sunstar for making this model available.

Bugatti EB110 GT Silver 1/18 Diecast Car Model by Autoart

Bugatti EB110 GT Silver 1/18 Diecast Car Model by Autoart




The Bugatti EB 110 is the model that catapulted Bugatti back on the radar (and wishlist) of modern car enthusiasts.

In fact, this car had 552 hp which propelled the car to a unbelievable 343 kph! Quite a feat for production street cars in the mid to early 90s.

However, the Bugatti company declared bankruptcy in 1995 due to a number of reasons, not the least of which was the recession that hit European and North American economies.

In 1998 Volkswagen bought and revived the Bugatti brand and this gave birth to the spiritual successor of the EB110, the legendary Veyron.
