the sparkle of the metallic paint is quite obvious thou... but it looks really cool.
the camera's flash probably made it reflect more...

long time didnt post here adi. good to see its back.
some time back i found a few AutoArt 1/18 R32 GT-R models. they look really good but since its those limited edition millenium models, they cost a massive RM330 or 360 i think. cant remember.
I bought my BNR34 V-spec II at RM229. if its at that same price i would probably have bought it already. the gun metal grey one looks really nice.

Do u have any suggestion for another model/manufacturer? I'm in mood to change for 1:18 scale now. Looking for BMW M3 and SKYLINE for starting. At the beginning of the post, its quite a model like have been posted by MetalZone.
*
I recommend AutoArt. They produce one of the best and most detailed 1:18 scale models.
My BNR34 model I posted is by AutoArt.

ya... it does cost me heavily... but im surprised with the the art work on the car... the R32 is my first purchase of auto art scale replica... btw, wat color is ur R34? im looking for an R34 too... preferably silver or black or even a NISMO tune will be excellent!

but before this, im hunting for white EVOLUTION7 and 2002 INTEGRA...

Mine's in Bayside blue. I posted pics in page 2. Post #34 and #35
I've personally seen them in yellow, white, nismo grey, and black, besides bayside blue. They all look good.

At the moment I still can't find any REAL Nismo Z-Tune Z2 models. All those pics u see online are using the same old bodyshape as the normal V-spec II's, which is actually similar to the prototype Z-Tune, except it is nismo grey and nismo stripes. But the final version that was sold and limited to 20 units is nismo grey, with no nismo stripes, and with wider front fender wheelarches, has a wheelarch strip at the rear, nismo bumpers (the top of the nose at the lights is pointed outwards, not flat), LED rear lights, and has air vents at the top corners of the front fenders (near the side mirrors). Those Nismo Z-Tune's u see just have the nismo hood with vents, but missing all the elements of the 20 limited edition Z-Tune Z2 final release.
If I can find a full spec Z-Tune Z2 model, i'll definately consider buying.

This is the Italian police's one and only Gallardo. As far as i know the only gallardo police car.
I've seen pics of police Diablo's as well, including from japan. They have all sorts of jap sports cars as police cars as well, including the R34 GTR, RX7 FD3S, NSX, Imprezza WRX MY05, Evo's, Galant VR4's, Mitsu GTO.

ooo... nice car u have... sure u wont regret of having a SKYLINE R34 in ur collection... Im lack of a SKYLINE R34 streetcar so i juz feel quite 'empty' towards my collection.

so izit easy to find a 1/18 Skyline from AUTOART in KL? btw, besides Skyline, i oso got see a FAIRLADY 350Z tuned by NISMO... if not wrong, i think its called S-TUNED...

do u think it is a worth and good buy?
*
Shud be able to find i guess, i bought mine in ipoh's Nikko shop in kinta city/jusco quite some time back. That time they happened to bring in a couple of BNR34's. So i got to see the entire range of colours and i wanted one immediately.
I've seen them in midvalley also i think.

Guess the only obvious exterior difference between the stock one is the S-Tune is in nismo grey and stripes, with a wing.

QUOTE(Jackygwh @ Jun 19 2006, 10:43 AM)
yup this is seal bodyshell car...... cheaper... than normal autoart car... stil very good quality.. biggrin.gif

btw if i bring in Auto art u ppl really intrested to buy ?? cause its an expensive brand not much ppl will buy......
*
if the price is significantly lower than the market value here i'll consider. Unfortunately I'm saving for my second electric guitar at the moment. tongue.gif
