Does anyone know of or have any scale models of a 944? I am looking for some to add to my collection of toys. I prefer 1/24, 1/12, or 1/18th scale metal cars. Color does not really matter. Any leads would be great.

There's the 1:24 944 Turbo model kit by Hasegawa, also reboxed by Revell. They come up on eBay periodically for not much money.

Other than that, there are assorted 1:43 die cast 944 versions from quality miniature maker, Minichamps.

There is a good mix of old vintage stuff and newer vintage stuff for the 924 and 944 cars. You will mainly find them in 1/24 and smaller, some very detailed, some more generic. Almost all of what you find whether it be plastic model kit, die cast model, etc. will be made by a foreign manufacturer. I have some cool pieces...I will post some pics when I get a chance.

I just bought the one by Hasagawa 944 Turbo Racing 1/24 Model kit. It's very nice and highly detailed, I payed roughly $50 for it with shipping included on Ebay. It was Brand new unopened and totally worth it.

Why yes there are a few iterations of the 944:










I've collected most of them and have a mulitples of several of them. Not pictured above is the Revell version of the Turbo, a yellow 968 CS, and a 944S. The yellow 968CS and the 944S are hard to come by. There are several 924 versions (rally, S etc) but I've never sought them out. I'll probably start working on 924's after I finish with the 928's.


There is also a "limited edition" hotwheels version that matches my car's color almost exactly. Comes up on Ebay fairly often:

This is the closest I've seen to a 1:18 944.

924/944/968 toys are out there but most of what I have found are smaller than the 1/24 size. Typically, they're older toys and most of them have been found at antique shops although I've tripped over a couple others in stores.

Here is what I currently have. Sorry for the blurry pictures but I'm too lazy to retake them:

An old 924 made in '77 or '78:



2 944s and a 924 Carrera GT:



931 and 924



The row:



2 944 Cabriolets (one with the top up and one is top down)



1/24 924 Carrera GT that I stumbled across while on my honeymoon.

i was told on the weekend that AutoArt makes a 1/18 944 Turbo and 944S.

although they don't make it with the N/A front or in LY3V, i'm still going to try to source one...

someone also makes a 1/18 924 Carrera GT, saw it at my local die-cast shop. not sure if it's also Autoart

Bringing this thread back from the dead. Some of you may know AutoArt finally started making some of the 80's cars again and they have some really nice 951's. The Silver Rose is the most common but this seller just got the red ones with a very unique interior. Check it out, I just might have to grab this

I have 2 Hasegawa 1:24 944 boxed models (unopened) - one is a 944 Turbo and the other is a 944 Turbo Racing. Looking to trade one of these for a Hasegawa 968 Yellow CS (CA-12). Anyone out there want to trade?

Also, in this thread it is mentioned that Revell is making a yellow 968 CS - wow, that would be great but I believe Hasegawa was the only manufacturer.

Yup, Auto Art. I even bought one.

I got a 1:24 924 Gt off Ebay for around $10 with shipping. Made by Burago. Not in the same universe as the Auto Art but I think its cool.

About 4 years ago I was in the Opryland Hotel in Nashville. The gift shop had about 6 diecast metal 944. I could kick myself in the butt for not buying all of them. They were about 15 bucks each.
