There are tons of them on eBay. That's where I got mine for not more than they'd cost in the store.

I gotta stop going to the store to look for teeners....

My 3rd stop netted 2 at Wallymart, one of which I gave to AndrewPokrandt.

Went on another search recently and at the 4th store (Wallymart), I found another one and came to with a Ghia and a matte black Gallardo....

Next day I stalked another Wallymart and found another teener so now I have 3.

But, the Hot Wheels pegs called and I found this killer Ferrari 512.

This is the car that ran at Lemans in 1971. The top winners in that race were 3 Porsche 917's, three Ferrari 512's and the 914. That makes this car very 914 period correct and I actually have photo of a 914 and 512 at that race.

My 512 is yellow. Red or yellow are Lemans colors.

Stop me before I stalk cheap diecast cars again!!!!!

OK, I have some cars that I am supposed to ship to someone and I owe money for some of these cars that have arrived. I need to get these off of my table. Contact me. You know who you are! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

The 512 is sweet. I'd like to find a 917 like that.

At 6.99 shipping, I think I will wait for my normal trips to Target and Walmart to look for the cars. Can't justify up to 9x the cost of retail. I'm a single father of two young sons, so yes, I visit these stores often.

She's an east coaster, but the package was shipped from Texas.

I've only ever found 2 in stores, one in Target and one in Walmart. The Kmart in Greenbelt doesn't even have any Matchbox cars on the rack.

True... I got my sister looking in Florida, while I make the rounds in the western MD / WV panhandle / Cumberland Valley PA area.

That Ghia is sweet... I got 2 of them myself. Now I'm thinking I might want to pick up the green Oldsmobile Vista Cruiser. It has 2 doggies sticking their heads out the back window.

I'm seeing alot of the Ghia's in my search for the elusive 914. How many Ghia's does your friend want? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I am very sure they haven't hit the Bay Area yet. I put my request into Lodi supply contact.
