In addition to my '00 Silver/Red, after santa visited me this year I now have the Maisto die cast (the detail is pretty amazing) and the Tyco RC "Canned Heat" red S2000. Some would think that I'm obsessed!

Try the Auto Art S2000 1/18 scale. amazing detail right down to actual seatbelts. I have the Maisto as well as the RC car. I guess I have four.

Santa brought me a few more S2000's this year. Now I have 8! Two Maistos, the Tyco RC one, and various other ones. Mostly red, but a yellow one, too. I want the Autoart one, I hear the detail is much more complete on that one as compared to the Maisto.



Obsession? Ummm, yea...

Funny you asked! I did pull the plate off one of my Maisto and it does leave a couple of small holes. But nothing that a little Honda touch up paint can't fix!

hehe

It's sick, I know...I need help.

Maybe I should write Maisto to see if they have body colored plugs to put in the holes

I got a Maisto(Road & Track)1:18 scale S2K at Wal Mart today. The price was reduced to $11. I think it looks great.
