I collect 1/24 cars. But lately I haven't bought anything since I can't find the cars I want, in the colors I want. No 2005 concept mustangs, no Cadillac Cien, no black Lamborghini Gallardo, no black Enzo Ferrari, no black or silver Shelby Series 1, etc. I am thinking about moving up to the 1/18 scale, but what will I do with the 1/24 cars I already have. They seem like they wont fetch much on wepay

I've got some of each, but I'm concentrating on the 1:18 now. I had so many 1:64 cars that I put them all away in boxes in storage.

I prefer the 1/18 variety myself, but if I see a nice one in a different scale and I can afford it, I buy it.

I prefer 1/18th, but I have a lot of 1/64th in storage boxes until I can get my room set up properly.

WOW :shock: , Now that is a Collection!!!! Very nice Mark!!

I like the 1/18 Scale the best, but I like the 1/43 scale for my desk at work.

I am currently looking into getting some 1/18 Le Mans cars.

This Bentley Speed 8



and a 1/18 scale Mazda 787b 1991 Le Mans Winner (No Picture)
