dlq04 - GREAT thread! I'm subscribing to this one for sure. I recently found out about the Ebbro 1:43 models and am interested in finding one. They include the soft top "up" option, don't they? That would make a unique addition to our collection, since the only only other version we have with the top up are the Mattel(Tyco) Canned Heat R/C and the Microsizers.
Anyone know of a good fair-priced source for the TAMIYA 1:24 US model or the Ebbro's?

Nice thing about EBay is that each country has its own. I have bought cars from Ebay Germany, Italy, France, Spain and Canada, but mostly from the US. I've always had good experiences with car collectors on EBay.

This is a store that's about 1-1/2 hours away for me. They do a great mail order business but I like to visit it in person. Not much in the way of S2000s but their other offerings are great.
