Question TL Die Cast Models?

Does anyone know of a company that sells die cast models of a 2000/2001 3.2tl? My son wants one so he can "Have a car like daddy"?

Thanks in Advance for the help.

I have been trying to look for one for a long time now, but still no progress. I'll post again if any replies from Japan.

Oh man, I hear this! My 6 year old son loves my new car. He's like, "mom, you have the coolest car on the whole street" and "my mom's car is faster than your mom's car" Cracks me up! (and I don't disagree either!hehe)

So please let us know if you find out anything, thanks!

Yeah, I'd love one too. I've got a couple of diecast BMW 3-series (E34 and E36) on a shelf in my office. One was gift, and I bought the other when I was still shopping for my current car...

Guests always ask me if I own one, and I have to say "no." I'd much rather have a 'lil TL up there, and be able to say "yes!"

Black, please!

Thumbs down

Looked around a lot...called up a few places too.... but no luck. Maybe if a lot of us conveyed our interest, it might encourage them to make them.

www3.autoartmodels.com

Here is the link to AutoArt's Website. They make some of the best detailed diecast around. They are very receptive to the customers.
If enough people show interest they may make it. They already make the Lexus GS400 and the IS300.
