I have one 1:18 AutoArt R34 Nissan Skyline GT-R, but my nephew broke it apart last year. And I have six 1:18 diecast cars from Maisto because they are cheap, I bought them from Costco for like $12 each, and they are Lamborghini Diablo SV, Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera, BMW M5, Audi R8 GT, Porsche Panamera Turbo, and Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG. All six of them are still in the boxes so easy to wipe off the dust. I wish Maisto could make more late year models because they are very nice for the money. AutoArt makes excellent cars but too expensive to collect. Most of the good ones are over $100 and some even $200. I wish I could buy the 1:18 Pagani Zonda from AutoArt.
I remember when those 1:18 die cast cars were around $100 in the 80's and rarely saw them under $50 in the 90's and on. I also have had a Burrago Ferrari Testarossa and 308GTO since the mid 80's. I saw a white Porsche 959 that I really liked a few years ago at a hobby shop but could not bring myself to spend $130 for it.

I used to have a C4 Vette, C4 ZR1 Vette, C5 Vette, C5 z06, C1 Vette, C3 Vette (notice a trend?), a yellow diablo and murcielago and assorted motorcyles. Unfortunately they all got lost when we moved.....

lol yeah i've been meaning to star the collection back up. As of now i only have one die-cast..... a blue genesis coupe to match my car, 
Genesis replaced a maxima i used to have, last Lexus i owned was back in 07. and 138th n Brook aint that far. I basically pass it everyday going to work on the 3rd ave bridge.
