Forgive me - Not 1/64: AUTOart 1/18 Ford GT LM Spec II Test Car(Carbon Fiber) & Race Car(white)

I only collect 1/64 scaled cars.....  but that doesn't mean I don't buy other scale diecast cars, occasionally.  I used to be a big Gran Turismo fan, and this is one of the very few 1/18 scale cars I long desired.  :D  I recently nearly bought the original release(must be getting close to ten years old now) of the carbon fiber version for around $300, but I'm glad I didn't.  AUTOart actually re-released these cars this year, and while it wasn't cheap, for the price of what would have cost me for one, I was able to buy both the carbon fiber test car & the white race car version.

First one from AmiAmi actually was actually missing the gear shifter part, so I had to ship that one all the way back to Japan for refund, then buy a replacement on eBay.  Carbon fiber one w/white background is the one with the missing shifter.  lol

I apologize for this 1/18 interruption!
