I just bought a GT500 (production vers.) Hot Wheels Elite 1/18 from ebay...I thought they were being released later on this year, so jumped on it
Here is the link for another one i found:

Lemme know what you guys think...

 

I saw that model, and that same link on a diecast website I frequent. The only thing I'm not happy with, is that Hotwheels always seem to get the size of the wheels wrong. These just look a bit too big for the car. If you look at the other thread that has the Autoart Shelby (albeit it the concept version), the wheels are perfectly made to scale. This is only a small hinderence, that I can easily get over, and I will add this to my office collection of Mustangs.

 

Yeah, I really likes the auto art one, and probably would have taken it over this one, but couldn't find it anywhere on ebay, where I prefer to purchase this sort of thing. I will say however, that I would rather have my wheels a little bit too large rather than too small unlike the Shelby collectibles GT500, with the wrong wheels + size. I'm not bashing that company in any way, but I'm just saying that if you are going to produce a popular car, why not get the most important details right? Anyway, can't wait to get this one and I hope it's good! I'll post pics once I get it, if I get it lol

 

Hey Matt, I am with you on the Shelby Collectibles version. That model is just horrid. I'll be picking the Hotwheels up soon, and as soon as the Aa version is out, that one too. Post alot of pics when you get it. I can't wait to see it out of the box.
