    Tex, how much do you want for one? I can't find a single one :(

    Oh man, why am I back on the HotWheels hunt, I just spent 10 bucks when I really shouldn't have. :(

    I got 4 speed machines, and finally found a LP560-4.
    So I picked up a Gallardo Polizei, a Reventon, a Veyron, and a Enzo, along with the LP560-4, I picked up an orange Murcie. Impluse buys for the win and lose :D

    Luckily I can justify the purchase because they are going for 5-6 bucks :D

    Just picked up a 1:43 Hot Wheels Enzo at TRU. There were some others, but for $10 each I only got the Enzo.

    Yesterday at Wal-Mart I found
    2 Short Card Lamborghini Gallardo
    3 Short Card VW Scirocco GT24
    2 Short Card Ferrari F430 Challenge
    2 MBX Porsche 914
    2 CARS Ramone Chase

    I was thinking of going back by, there was a dozen of them, they should be "half off" after Valentine's Day??? LOL!

    I hear ya!

    I checked my statement, and that day I had bought a few cars, then some nice eyeglasses on clearance in the Optician Department.

    Only my checking was overdrawn, so it looks like this at BoA:

    $30 purchase + $39 Fee
    $70 purchase + $39 Fee

    Then I stopped for gas to get home,

    $40 purchase + $39 Fee

    Then there was one other item cleared that day. $160 for THE DAY, for nothing but bank Fees!

    Let's see, your Daytona will be $160, is that okay????? :D :D :D :D :D

    Of course Tex! :D

    Hopefully with that price, I will be able to shrink down to size and hop in and drive away into the night. :D

    Call your bank and ask them to remove the bank fees.

    Wow! How are they on there? That looks sick!

    I finally got lucky today and found the Speed Machines 599GTB, and a sweet Vairy8 (Drag race Corvair) from the Wayne's Garage series...

    Each car has 2 metal custom made clips that wrap around the outside wheel well, travel under the car and through small holes in the 3/4 maple board. It took many hours to do this project. I am working on my 3rd 2' x 4' Ferrari board. I have been collecting for 40 years and have a sealed collection as well. It's too late to do an inventory, too many cars.

    I had only been seeing the Audis (R8 and TTS), the Caddy LMP, the NSX and occasionally the car they claim to be a Reventon. Today I found those same cars again, but hidden in the back of the rack were two 599GTBs and a California... I passed on the California, I don't collect Maseratis. :D

    Dude, that is just awesome. Can you post a picture of the clips and how they attach? I'm sure some of us here would love to display our cars like that... just crazy cool!

    Ah, well I found a bunch, SRT10, lots of the Caddy racecars a 575GTC, a 599GTB, and a few R8s and TTS'

    +1, that is awesome, I tried that once with a small nail with a Porsche GT3 cup car I have :eek:

    Didn't work out too well :D Got the nail stuck inside the dashboard of the car, I later realized it would be difficult with the cars that had their windows rolled up :D

    I'll check it out tomorrow or Sunday, and if it's still there I'll buy the 575 and send it to you.

    Oh, and I looked for the Valentines Daytona, all I could find were Christmas ones, weird :D

    I had two Valentines Daytonas available, but one is spoken for. The second one is yours if you want it.

    It seems the 599GTB and the California are the ONLY Speed machines around here!

    Went thru TrU, Target and Walmart again, nothing new, yellow 512s everywhere and not much else!

    Have ya'll seen the crazy cool LEGO F1 transporter/two F1 cars?

    Almost bought it but $80 was a little steep! No one around to build LEGOs anymore at my house....

    They had a little $10 kit that was cute too, a section of fold out track and 2 cars.....

    Hot Wheels will have a new 911 GT2 or GT3 coming out later this year...

    If you look at the 2010 Hot Wheels poster in this post you can see the card art for the new 911, 7th pic down. I can't tell if that says GT2 or GT3 under it though...
