Great! I just ordered from EWA and picked up a 1/43 Black 993 Turbo for $37 shipped. Not bad. Even has my tan interior.
Glad I saw this thread...thanks!

Looks like UT prices are going up lot faster than our real estate market...
I'd remember not too long ago, getting a Riviera Blue 993 RS for less
than $35 and today I see one on flebay for $200!!!!(insane seller though)

I don't think Hot Wheels makes 1/18 Porsche models, but their Ferrari 1/18 models are spectacular.

Both cars I pictured in post #12 have broken the $400.00 mark on Ebay auctions. Makes me feel
guilty for buying them for the issue price when they first came out. It's been tempting to list them
to sell but I can't because they're 993's!

Agreed. I have the Ferrari challenge car #102 driven by A. Barde.
Exoto makes some very impressive Porsche 934 & 035 turbos and their
Sauber C9 Mercedes models are truly stunning!

$400!! wow.

I sold my HW 1/18 355 and 355 Spyder when they each hit $100. Bought them originally for $29.99. I wonder what they go for now... or maybe I don't

Nice Lineup! The red one in the foreground looks like the Carrera RS. I didn't know that UT made a
Carrera RS until last year. An excited R-lister purchased one at the Hershey Swap and posted pictures.
The inner box sleeve even says "Carrera RS". And I thought I knew UT's...

Catus,
It's your $400 collection, right there!
Would you belive it, if I said I almost had a chance to buy a UT 993 GT2 Evo for less than $100.
DANG!

I would say they're about equal.

But the seller is giving FREE shipping!

The sad thing is, there is someone out there (hopefully not from here) who will click on the "buy" button for this sellers items, when they can be obtained for a lot less elsewhere.
