Is the autoart s2k model available in a red / black left hand drive (US Model)? If so, from where?

Thanks

The Autoart models are available only in the U.S. (LHD) version. The Maisto models are available in both U.S. and JDM (RHD) versions.

You can get the Autoart at Exoticar, www.exoticar.com , and also at EWA www.ewacars.com , although it's cheaper at Exoticar.

EWA also has Ebbro 1:43 scale in both LHD and RHD models.

If you have a Sharper Image store in your area you might check out their inventory. I remember they had a nice diecast model of the S2K. I don't recall the color or drive position, however.

Sharper Image carries the Maisto models. They charge way to much for them by the way. You can go to eBay and get the Maisto for about $20 and the Autoart for around $40. Sharper Image will get you for around $32 for the Maisto.

There were a lot of threads on the old forum about the differences between the two. basically, you want the AutoArt.

Looks like Autoart doesn't have a red/black. That's too bad!

the autoart car is great.
It even has the shift pattern on the shifter.
I still look for the Maisto car sometimes.
If I can get it for $10 I will buy that one too.
