Just got back from a vacation in Hong kong and look what I bought. Quality is a little better than Matchbox and the door opens.

I can't wait to start seeing them as hot wheels.

Nice! Needs to be lowered (huge wheel gap) and needs new wheels.... oh and a supercharger.

I got really excited when I thought it was an RC kit.

Haha. Funny you say that because the car also comes with "springy" suspension and you can close the wheel gap by pushing it down. Looks much better now.

I saw this in Hong Kong also. It was expensive and I also have to paint it so I didn't get it.

I found one also, had to get the Argento though since there was no Whiteout. Not really a fan of the red. Stoked.

Yes, they have the Argento one also but I was told that its a "Special" edition and they charge a dollar more for it so I got the red one since I think it look nicer. I wanted Whiteout also but they don't make it in that color.

jedichimp · 06-28-2012, 03:40 PM

Yeah I was hoping they had white/Whiteout but no luck. Oh well. Got the silver, really inexpensive.

In the past, I've bought the right model, then used touch-up paint to get the exact right color. Not sure how that works with the pearl colors though since I've never owned a specialty paint colored car like that.
