Hello? 1/18 Diecast World? Is Anyone There Besides AUTOart?!
Posted by: admin In: General Diecast
As the rest of the 1/18 scale diecast model car hobby industry continues a steady trend toward non-existance, AUTOart and it's distributor Gateway Global keep pumping out high-quality, unique collectible releases, albeit at ever-increasing prices. Not to mention that they're almost all Limited Edition, which translates well into a healthy future for the company.
Posted on their AUTOart shopping site are even more fresh models which will be coming soon. Pictured is the 2006 Porsche 911 (996) RSR #45 American LeMans Series "Flying Lizard" as driven by Wolf Henzler (who replaced Jon Fogarty) and Johannes van Overbeek. We think this is the best-looking Porsche RSR model developed yet! It is AUTOart Diecast Model No. 80673 and should be available the same time as Stock No. 80671, the ghastly pink Zolder #21.
