I was at CVS Pharmacy a week ago and they had a display with a bunch of diecast cars ~1:18. I was amazed to find a FR-S in Hot Lava in the display. It was $8.50 and fairly well detailed. Of course I had to snag one to match my Hot Lava FR-S.

Autoart makes the most detailed car models that I'm aware of

I don't think they are over-priced at all

I wish they had a 10 series model or one that was available in ignition silver. I would definitely buy one if they did.

Edit: They have the Initial D "Project D" Trueno (AE86) model available next month, too! I just found an early Christmas gift!

Wow, nice model. Not too overpriced for the quality and may go up in value if it's a limited production.

Here's a smaller one for much less scratch. But only 1/36th scale. About 5". $6.99 shipped and available in different colors.

I thought this was expensive for a Diecast model until I ran into a company on FB that shall remain nameless that wanted to build a VW Super Beetle for me that would cost me $750. Granted it would be hand built with details from pictures but still. Expensive
So with that said to pay less than $200 for a Diecsat Model of my FR-S with all the detail isn't all that bad.
