I buy most of my 1/18 Ferraris at Wal-Mart but I have never seen them that cheap! they are usually between $24-30 both in Canada and the US. I did find some very cheap ones at KB toy's in Buffalo, they were about $14US but you've gotta keep going back because the good stuff goes quick. I actually bought a few formula 1 cars from them. |

I never see Ferrari's at Wal Mart or Target. I checked Exoticar last night, and they had none listed. I see them on Ebay all the time starting at $34.00 "Buy it now" with $15 shipping. I know this is a $20 piece, so I'm not going to pay $50. I guess I'll keep looking. |

You guys are spending WAY to much for this thing. If you go to Wal-Mart(your favorite store) and go to the toy section, they carry Mattel 1/18 scale cars. I got mine for a big 12.99. I have also seen them for 16.99. Good luck. |

When visiting the Exoticar store in NYC before Christmas, they had a stack of at least 60 of 'em on display...readily available.

Jim, mine came from Exoticar in mid-December... unfortunately Hot Wheels has exclusive rights to 1:18 Ferraris, so don't be too thrilled when you finally get one- they're somewhat chincy... |

I bought one. There is a whole display of them in a convenience store in Toronto. Seems to be a big supply here. They run at about $50. Do you want me to pick one up for you?  |

A few months ago Mattel ran ads in all the car magazines for the new Enzo, then had none on the shelves. I seem to recall they promised them by Dec, but still nothing. They seem to be all over Europe, but this US based company can't seem to get any to the home market. Does anyone have any details? |
