Default Diecast 993TT- know where to get them?

Does anyone know if 1:18 scale diecast models of our beloved TT's are still available somewhere? I need something to beautify my desktop.

TIA,
Mike

Mike try here on EBAY.

The link is long but way worth it.... There is two of the burgandy ones up for sale right now - but like the 993 in AU going UP in value - rarer and harder to get. I have a metalic black one as well - but i thenk they are a lot rarer. The Exoto are a SERIOUS collectors item - the ones i have in my collection are AMAZING in detail - and on EBAY cheap too!! Good Luck!

Im looking for a 993TT model as well - hopefully in silver.
I have the UT 993c2 model and it is great.
Any suggestions? anyone ever see one?

Here's one link http://www.exclusivediecast.com/cart/customer/home.php
Minichamps makes a Silver 993TT and its considered a 1995 model if you search. I guess it came out in 95' copying the 96 model car. I found one on ebay through a dealer.

I think 1:18 size is better than the 1:43 size - but ill take either.

I'm checking today to see if we can get black or silver and I'l let you guys know what I come up with. I've only ever seen the burgundy colored models and would jump at the opportunity to get black or silver. I'm hoping to get them in 1:18 scale.

Cheers.

I had found a black 993TT on ebay. It is a 1:18, black exterior/tan interior. It was made by Anson. Check their website at www.anson-scalemodel.com.

It is okay. I think I paid around $25 for it

I recently bought one of the black/tan 1:18 993 TTs off Ebay that's made by Ertl. It's not a masterpiece, but it looks good. I paid about $30.

I want a Polar Silver one with black interior. If it happens to show Recaros with a roll bar and harnesses, that would be cool too.

I'm waiting on one vendor to give me a call. The word is that he has some black, silver and burgundy models in 1:18. Jauder, I'm hoping to find one with your specifications and with the license plate, MINIME1
