You know, I think this car resembles the Chinese TL. It has the 07 mirrors and tail lights and it's now sold in China and so someone in China decided to make a replica model of it.

I think that's kinda cool.

The listing was removed from ebay. Did someone end up buying it?

It wasn't bought or it would still be listed. It was either removed by Ebay or the USER himself.

I don't see any reasons to promote this eBay sale (or even a group buy). Would some moderator PLEASE move this thread to the appropriate section (Black Market)?

one interesting thing that i noticed was the fact that the rear doors open as well. all 1/18 scale models i've seen only do the normal two front doors, hood, and maybe trunk. the detail looks killer on it (notice the window frame areas).

Depends on what brand. Normal Maisto's don't do it, however the premium ones for some cars. All AutoART and Kyosho diecast models have all the doors, trunk and hood open.

I collect these die-cast models and IHMO they are way over priced. This guy is making a killing!

Check out the diecasts made by kyosho that seller has in his store. They are way better in quality than the TL/RL and yet they are way cheaper.

Well if Kyosho made a TL or RL, then we would buy it at th $55~ range. But since this guy only sells it for that much, we're pretty much left to the only monopoly available.

I wonder how much you could get them on the streets or stores in China. I'm going to ask a few friends to check this out for me.

dear acuramaniacs or acuraholics,

why don' t you write only wat's most important in your posts...
right know that thread contains 3 pages and more than 2digits of answers...

for some good reason if I had to find the real answer I would have to read all your comments, waste of time... TRY to think when You would like to find something usuefull for You, what your comment would be ? can write here...FFFF.....

everybody can browse the web and check on ebay if our beloved babe has been already launched by people who produce rice, cheap electornics and now cars ...

If somebody really wants to make a deal with anything and for anybody, just let us know when got final offer, do not bargain on forum, and let us read what/s really most important...

do not be angry with me :-)

Does the interior of his model look like this?



If so, doesn't it look wierd that the steering wheel is upside down?

I would hit that. I am definitely in if it's that price. I do miss my TL and having the replica would alleviate that a bit.

The steering wheel should turn with the wheel so it's possible the front wheels are turned.

If you look at the rest of the photos here
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll..._promot_widget

I really hope that you're right about the steering wheel, but I assumed that he took the picture at the same time w/o messing around w/ the steering wheel. And if he did that, then the wheels are straight and the steering wheel is upside down.

I'm in for that price. Ditto on the question about whether that is shipped to our door or not.

Still working out the detail fellas, Not Looking to resell and make money off you guys just organizing the buy being a vendor so its easy. I make money on you guys on my door sills and Race pedals. So support the cause and buy those LOL.

As for being shipped to your door no that would be shipped to me, So figure another few dollars for priority mail to you. We can start forming a list soon, I am trying to get 50 of each color plus I have to hit the 100 car mark to get this done. I will keep you updated. I am working on getting the guys banking info now to start the process.

Ok Guys lets start a list I have the guys banking info I need to Start a Black list and a Silver one. Cost to your Door Via Priority Mail is going to be 85.00 I need to get atleast 20-30 people for each color before I commit. Delivery time to the USA is about 10 days then I am looking at 2-3 days to box them up and get them out to you.

So you know here is how i am coming up with the price. 63.00 Delivered to the USA "50.00 for the model 13.00 for EMS Shipping", 9.00 for Shipping to You Via Priority Mail, 5.00 to cover paypal fees, and about 8.00 per car for all my time and for the 6,300 I am going to have to lay out to place the order.

If your intrested start the list now for Black and Silver There are no returns on this Item once you pay all sales are final. I wont start taking payments until I place the order and we have 20-30 people on each list. If we hit 20-30 fast we could have these before Christmans.

Thanks
Dave
