Those seem really well built and detailed! Nice!

I'll bet they are faster than my 914.

Nice set!
I have the yellow one to match my parts car but the quit making them right after I got my blue one. Anyone know where I can get a blue car?

Nice photos, Johannes.
I also have the set of three, plus a second yellow one to be painted red similar to my 914. Another 914 project waiting to happen!
I think I bought them all from EWA. I check various model car and diecast sellers occasionally and I haven't seen these listed for quite a while. Nor have I seen any Minichamp 1/43 914's lately.
Are there any other currently available 914 models out there? Besides the Mattel Hot Wheels 914?

if someone runs across a source could you let us know? I'd really like the blue one to match my '74.

Go on ebay and Make a search "914 1/18" select "worldwide" in the left menu and click the "search" button.
It will return "0 results found". Next to the result click "save the search". Every time a 1/18 Revell will be on sale on ebay, you will receive an email from the ebay robot.

I have my blue one over a year now....bought it from a guy in "Austrailia"... a long way to get a car. Would rather have the orange model.....since my 76 is orange. It took me a while to find mine...AA is sold out.

I have a pair of the GAMA wire control ones and another blue one that can someone can pick up easily. Since I sold the race car and retired I decided to let many of the 914 things go and the GAMA cars (one with a box) are pretty rare.

Yup. And there will be a yellow one in the next day or two.

Very tempting offer ! ... Is the GAMA a red one ? ...
