Last time I emailed http://www.scalemotors.com they had 2 left in stock in yellow. They told me stock is low on these things and are majorly backordered....

I think last time I checked they were $45 plus shipping.. made by autoart I think.... nice quality ones...

My cabinet of Corvettes... the lower part.. cutoff in that pic has other cars But Ive had real good results with scalemotors...

I actually have one right now, if you want it! Never been out of the box. I bought it yesterday. I'm actually looking for a silver/red one but can't find it, so I figured I might be able to paint the yellow one if I had to.

It's the 1/18 model from Maisto. I think I got it for $19.95 and if you cover that and shipping, I'll send it to you!

Ive seen both models.. the Maisto and the AutoArt... the autoart is made much better... but for those who arent as picky.. its all the same I guess... but if you look at the detail.. the parts.. opening and closing parts.. you will definitly know... I mean.. u get what you pay for...

Ive got models from Maisto, Burago and AutoArt... to rate them... Id say:

1)AutoArt
2)Maisto
3)Burago (junk)

Its sad to see these things in the store with wheels and parts fallen off... AutoArt makes them with high quality.. ok.. enough autoart praise for one day

AutoArt also makes them in Black , Red, white and Silver I believe....

I got a yellow one (Maisto) from WalMart for less than $20. Probably the same one AgS2k was talking about.

Contact Sport Craft Miniatures, Laingsburg, MI. Phone 517-651-6305. eMail: mhaveman@sportcraftcars.com. I was at their store last Thursday and they had two yellow AutoArt S2000. BTW, AutoArt is clearly the best, although it's a little pricey. They also had black, and silver,..don't recall if they had white. Hope this helps.
