@RPMPKDMFF: I totally agree with you. I wish there were more sites catering to India shipping though some of them do, the shipping costs are very expensive. Also can't trust the customs and the postal service here in handling the package safe.

Last year, I made a bulk purchase from AutoArt which cost me a bomb. With my purchase, they did send a free color catalog of their models. The more you see the catalog, the more you are enticed into buying:eek:. A good marketing move. Here's a few snaps from the AutoArt catalog.

WOW!! I would love to own that manual. Just so that I could drool over those!! BTW, does anyone want a Toyota Celica from AA?? Its only 2K.

Also, I would like to exchange my Carrera GT for a good Merc/BMW. Anyone in Bombay interested?

what a manual!!! a nice collection of cars.

Edit - Cyrus, where to order the Celica for 2k from?

Its in Bombay. But you need to come here and take it. Its at Gift Centre.

EDIT: No takers for my Carrera GT?

Too Bad, If the same had been available about a month back, I could have picked it up on my visit to Bombay that time.

This would be my pick from the lot.

@ Cyrus: I would love to have that as I don't have that model in my collection, but again I don't have a mercedes for exchange.

Guys, here' are the pics of the 1-18 AutoArt Lancer Evolution VII from my collection.

I envy you Siddvi :D It is perfect in everyway.

Do you only use the car for street racing or do you take it to the Special Stages? Evo without mud on its body is just another Street Race car :D

Wow thats indeed a neat lancer.Does anyone in india have the models for the veyron or the lp640 or the 670 ?
If so can you please post some pictures.

The Count for Veyron is very limited. and LP640 you'll find a lot just browse through the pages. But LP670... Humm i'm not sure is they have a scale model for that yet.

Anyways speaking of Lambo's Check this out guys:

Omg sinner thats just unreal. Would love to have that. Do they actually retail one of those ?
BTW the LP670 scale model has come out.
Seen it over amazon.

There goes another one in my wanted list. Anyways About that Diorama, its very rare to find someone who sells these as they mostly built for Hobby. but they look sur-real isn't it. Would love to build one of those..

Rocksta Car !!! Just love the interiors / upholstery. clap:

Siddvi, the Evo is so beautiful, it really tugs at the heart. Since owing one even in that scale is not possible for me right now, i think i'll just have to make do with these for the time being. :)
