so this week im gonna post my fourth model obtained from KL... although this car is a bit old, its my favourite car since it released, another addition to my japcar collection... launched in the year 1999, the 1/18 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI from Autoart... a model tat is never be found in my place here...



Jackygwh has one in silver, so i decided to pick for the white, which match with my evo7... and this is the only car which has a sunroof in my collection!

more photos after the jump...

thanks man... hows ur hunt on impreza wrc? plan for online purchase? talk bout evo10, i wonder when will they release the die cast version... but i do really hope to see a black one...

well... recommended shots is from the perspective view, do turn your model wheels around when u shoot ur models, example: shift the wheel to the right if u plan to shoot the model on its left side... try to lower ur shots so tat the model looks real...

bout uploading, try to look for the Attachment when ur typing ur post... its located below the box tat ur typing ur post... click the "browse" button, the pick the photos u wish to upload to ur post...

Jackygwh: ermm... quite costly for the purchase of these models... ... but guess how much i got for this evo6? yap, they are the same, only the color is different... i was hoping for black tommi makinen version but failed, so decide to go for this one...

bearbear: ermm... i only can tell u nikko atria is located at atria shopping centre, somewhere in damansara jaya... the shopping mall is surrounded by shops... a multi-level car park is built in front of the shopping mall...

i think so kua... coz i only go there once nia... tats where i got my gallardo de.. but the uncle there is really frenly, if compare to the skinny guy who sometimes look after the shop at MV...

bearbear: well... i have no idea where is it near to... but one of the ways to go there is tat u take the LRT to kelana jaya station... get a taxi to bring u to Atria Shopping complex, damansara jaya... coz i was visitor when i went to KL last time... i went there by a taxi from KL Sentral... cost bout RM11 (if not wrong)...

Ka Ken: whoa...!!! are they die cast models or tamiya model kits? if die cast how ur suppose to bring them over here? huge plastic bags will certainly bring awareness to the custom in the airport man...

guys, got an issue to ask here... these die cast models get dusty from time to time... how u clean up these models? wat equipment do u guys use to clean the models? and how long do u clean them? once a week? twice a week? everyday? and how long do u spend for the time to clean the models?

as for me, i use a mopit brush to clean off the annoying dust... even if i have glass doors on the cabinet, the dust still manage to get it... so i usually 'sweep' off the dust every once a week...

how bout u guys then?

haizong: whoa whoa... where u get this from kch? tun jugah? hock lee centre? nice d1 collection there... juz only the sponsor liveries are so seducing huh? so beginning with 2 s15s, plan to get more? how bout the famous ER34? 350z? AE86 as well?

Ka Ken: waa... twice a year...??? will it get very dusty by tat time? hey next time u have to shoot photos of ur whole cabinet of die cast le... wana see how u display these models... juz like wat notyboysn did on his collection...

evoHahn: hehe... tats acceptable lar... Ka Ken, need to spend more time to take care of ur models lar... hehe!

Ka Ken: hows ur survey in hongkong, sure lots of places u been to there ya? any difference between the lifestyle there and malaysia here? of coz, speaking cantonese does not count lar... hehe!

Jackygwh: nice idea oso le... ur rite, the dust oways come from the gap between its glass doors... but if we place sponge on the gap, how should we stick it? if we open the cabinet door the sponge might fall... and will sponge itself capture more dust? will need to try baru know le...

haizong: cool le...ae86 is nice... there are still lots more such as the ER34 too...

Cheesenium: ah? then how le? u leave the models like tat? wont the dust come in?

bearbear: hehe nice one! did u spot any other new models other than impreza? how bout lamborghini gallardo? did u spot a black one there?

yes i picked the yellow one... completely sealed box should be the R34 v-spec II Millennium Edition ya... tat one cost more as it has more additionals than the previously released R34 v-spec II... haha... compared to mine i think mine is juz an ant lar... but do u think tat the stock there has more selection ya, if compare to MV?

well... the first thing we can spot on the millennium edition R34 is the inclusion of window glass, which the previously aa doesnt add any window glasses, thus the interior gets dusty easily... other than tat n more detailed interior... tats all i able to spot on the difference... detailed features are the quality offered from millennium edition... as normal aa model is oredi good, the millennium edition is even better...

comparison made for the normal R34 v-specII and the millennium edition
left: normal version
right: millennium edition



hope u have a clearer view after studying the comparison photos from autoartmodels.com btw, izit the white R34 u spot in atria??? how much it sells for???

n yeap... i only manage to get the gallardo there and the uncle offer me a 30% discount lor...

well the uncle gave me this offer as he said got promotion le... so i decided to pick it lor...

hehe... u try to bargain a bit le... im sure he will since he so friendly approached...

haha no wrong mah... treat him good who knows he might have some special deal for u... exclusive models which is rare and worthy...

Ka Ken: nice le... hongkong disneyland is a must go place... looks like huge cities have such a busy life... i encounter myself in KL too... humid, lots of ppl rushing, especially after office hours in LRT... gosh, so many ppl squeezing... still prefer life in kch here, calm and quiet though quite boring sometimes.. haha! the only thing i love KL is the die cast market larger compared to here, more choice and easier to find the models i wan... thanks to the nikko shops...

Jackygwh: ah.. okok paiseh ah... btw, hows ur cabinet progress going these days?

bearbear: really? how come i didnt spot it last time? where it located? how long has it been arrived there? izit new arrival? how much it sells for?
