Do you own a model/diecast/whatever of a car you own or have owned? Show me!!

This is a 3D printed model of a Fiesta ST that sits on my desk at work.

I don’t have one YET, but I usually get one of the car I have, minus the Mazda3 because no one made a non-MPS/Mazdaspeed version of it (though I do have one)

I’ve been thinking of picking one of these up, and painting it to match (only chrome on mine is the wheels/emblems)

People always ask (ok they don’t) but people have asked if I’m going to paint my 3D print.

No, because 1) I can’t do art in any way shape or form and 2) the surface is really oddly textured since it is a 3D print.

Top of my desk: ‘60 Ranchero (close enough), ‘63 Galaxie, ‘59 Lincoln.

On the top of my desk I have a cardboard smartcar in one of my client’s livery.

My Grandfather got me this model of an R50 Mini like mine last year for Christmas.

1:1 scale model. Even came with tools.

Sadly, I do not have a ‘48 Chevy delivery, a Range Rover two-door, a mid-90s Ranger, a Hurst 442, or a Cessna Dragonfly (other things on top of the cabinet).

The unidentifiable object over the bed of the red Ranchero is the hand of a Monty Python King Arthur action figure.

After a quick google search I’ve concluded that a diecast model of the 2016 Forte5 SX doesn’t exist.

Is it abs or pla? If it’s ABS you can use acetone to smooth the surface.

The model is at home:

But thats a pretty good 3d print, can’t even see the layers.

5th gen Prelude and 2nd gen TSX. Upon googling, there are a couple models for the Prelude, but they’re from the era when body-kits and such were popular so that’s what they look like. As for the TSX, the closest thing i found was a Spirior, which is what the car was called in China.

I don’t, although there’s a couple different ones I want.

This one (looks rather uncommon though - TSM has a right hand drive one, though, it seems): https://m.ebay.com/itm/2016-toyota-prius-red-rare-twitter-promo-collectors-model-diecast-toy-car/3320029560959

And this one (available, but not cheap, especially for plastic 1:43): http://ebbro.co.jp/item_japangp/44273121122311111212121113113111113111231111113111131121121121112111111121111112111111112112111111311111111111111111111.html

I’m lucky in the sense that I can afford 2 red, 2 seater sports cars. But it’s the crossfires time to go. Recently made it the cheapest one for sale on autotrader. Hopeing that get its to a new home.

Where would one go to get a 3d printed model of a car?

I’m not sure there’d be any other way for me to get hold of a model of a ‘10 Taurus (SHO).

I got it from the Ford 3D store. No Taurus SHO though.

You could get one of these though: http://www.fordshowparts.com/store_contents.cfm?cart_id=11192041570111114100831049261220171011&store_id=1&dept_id=1137&product_id=6989

Thanks! The AutoArt Trophy Truck is my favorite. The 1:18 Cougars are cool too. I need to figure out where I want to display them, the garage doesn’t seem like the right place.

I had the Minichamps 1:32 Focus ST model (and still have a couple of the Greenlight 1/64). I like having models of my 1:1s. I wish I could find a diecast Grand Cherokee version of my wife’s 2014.

I can’t believe they charge for a certificate of authenticity. Doesn’t my title serve this purpose? Why do I need one? Doesn’t my 5000 pounds of car provide enough authenticity? Haha.

I’ve got a matchbox outback, and the rest of the subaru lineup. Got them for free for being a brand ambassador!

Despite always being on the lookout, none of my cars have really been cool enough to warrant an affordable die cast model. But I did find a pretty close casting to my old Thunderbird and painted it to match the one I owned.

Here’s what it looked like before:

(Sucky pic sorry) and yeah, this isn’t exactly my car but it’s my uncle’s. He’s had it for a long time now and it looks a lot like this. He’s let me take a few rides in it, I love it.

It’s interesting to have a model of the car contemporary to when it was new. Dinky 186 is a small clone of my car:

It’s a ‘12, not a ‘10, but close enough right?

awwww yes! Thanks! I wish the black ones weren’t the men in black edition, I have a black one. But I may just pick up this blue one.

Those are actually manufactured by AeroPro for the U.S. and are not affiliated with Matchbox.
