    Ok as you guys know I finally pulled the trigger this week and ordered my first model.
    HW F2003 Schumacher.

    Well, I'm on my way home a few minutes ago and I stopped in AutoZone because one of you had mentioned they carry Models.

    I stopped at the first one in town and nothing :-(

    So I drove across town and stopped, nothing again, I deceided to walk around the store and walked to the back and JACKPOT !!!
    The whole end of an alse was HW 1:18 Racing series !!

    They had Montoya, Ralf, and a ton of Michael's for 29.00. SO now I'm mad that I orded one for $46.00 when all along they were right in front of my nose. (bad part)

    Now the good part, Must be my day, because when I get home I played the answering machine messages and I have one from Ehobbies saying that my F2003 is on backorder and wanted to know if I wanted to cancell my order. Jackpot #2 for the day.

    I just got off the phone withe ehobbies and now I'm off to pick up my,
    FIRST MODEL !!
    Stay tuned for pics..........

    John,
    Good deal. But don't second guess your purchases. If you feel the price is right after some research, enjoy it. You will always find one cheaper if you look back (just like the real cars). Look ahead at the next one.

    Very good advice.

    There's some models I've skipped on and you know what?

    I never seen them again and as expected... the price has gone up.

    Remember the HW 288GTO?
