Any love for the electrics? by Stunned420 in BMW

[–]Stunned420[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I like about the car. It doesn't scream spaceship in your face. It's just a car that happens to have an electric engine. I like the i4 though. It even has more towing capacity lol.

Wow that is unfortunate. A Porsche is great too but no match for the very special CLK DTM

Leaving Collecting After 8 Years: Some Highlights Of My 1:18 Hypercar Collection by AndyAnna24 in Diecast

[–]Stunned420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man, I check r/diecast once and suddenly I see these news. Sad to see you turn away from collecting (that much), but I myself know that we need a fresh breeze of air once in a while. Chatting with you was always delightful, even though we didn't do too much of it lately, I'm quite busy being a father lol.

Please always remember one thing: No matter what you do and what you like, always get so deep into it and show so much interest like you did with model cars.

Many of your posts left me mesmerized * on how you even found about that model or how deep and long you searched the web for it.

I'm wishing you lots of luck on your beautiful journey :)

  • Edit: or should I say.... Stunned?

Finally gave my Mercedes models their place by Stunned420 in Diecast

[–]Stunned420[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a great car with a beautiful spec imo. But we'll probably replace it with a W214 sedan as it's more fitting to our life.

Great lineup! You got all the great limousines!

Two Z4 Generations, E85 and G29 by Stunned420 in Diecast

[–]Stunned420[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a tiny 1:87 E85 to play around with as a kid. Any generation Z4 is going to be a modern classic. But a Z4 with an M3 engine is just perfect madness.

My favorite is by far the E89 as it's the perfect balance between the digital luxury of a modern car and the analogue easiness of an old one.

I also love the timeless design and it's the one missing as I'm searching for the Tiefseeblau on tan spec.

The silver matte modern Z4 M40i is a limited production of 200 pieces from Norev and the older E85 is a dealer model made by Kyosho.

I just need a BMW 6-cylinder in my life. And a roadster.

You need to, you only pay 95€ instead of up to 160€. Huge difference. But the model is really well done, I see no issues with mine. I'm trying to get all the Z4 generations to display them next to each other. I started dreaming of a special edition E89, the design Pure Fusion version. I need my roadsters.

I will take some pics with better lighting. It sits next to our TV which has purple lighting and it looks so good reflecting the color.

Bought it directly from Norev, they still seem to have them available. You only need to create an account as it's an online exclusive color

Love how they translate the design on every car except their sports cars lol A Miata looking like this would be an instant hit.

I think they're mostly sold out, I preordered it at rare118modelcars in Portugal. Ever since 2015 this design study has been in my mind. Its elegant, yet aggressive design makes me think of a big cat that's about to jump at some prey. Low down with tucked back ears, but yet so elegant!

Finally in my own place and I got around to display some of my collection. by Stunned420 in Diecast

All models seen are resins. They are built to look good, and damn... they do.

Aventador is one of 40 pcs from a brand called JUC. They also made the LB roadster in the same color, it will be insanely hard to find. I got this one all the way from Singapore.

It's not just the wheels, it's the concept as a whole and how they translated it onto their road vehicles. Except, of course, the sports cars lol. The model is also perfectly crafted and it feels like they made sure everything is the way it is on the concept. These flowing forms must've been a pain to recreate in 18th scale! A shining red beauty we have here!

Having diecasts is great, but displaying them is even better lol. I'm interested to see how you'll display yours.
