Default Realistic Scale Models

Does anyone know who to contact if I am interested in getting realistic scale models of my cars? I have seen some car collections online where alongside the actual cars there are realistic scale models with the same exterior color and matching interior trim as well. Any help would be appreciated.

Amalgam seems to do a good job and can take on custom assignments https://www.amalgamcollection.com/

Amalgam is indeed one of the best in the business, not sure they make fully custom assignments.

"Exclusive Porsche Models" does custom requests, not sure if he's still active, but one can ask:

He's based in Germany:

I have a friend connected with Amalgam. I saw several of their models in person a couple months ago - and they are amazing down to the finest detail.

I asked about having a bespoke model made of my PTS GT4 and was told it’s likely to be around $100,000. It was an easy decision at that point (to say thanks but no).

If you go to their website you’ll learn about their process and there are a few race car models for sale. The 1:18 scale are in the range of $1000 USD +/- but it depends on what you’re looking for. Ferrari has a program whereby you buy their car (built to order) and you can option for an exact Amalgam model. Don’t recall the option cost but iI think it was in the $30k+ range. It might have been limited to certain Ferraris. I read through the brochure but didn’t spend a lot of time on it as it was of zero interest. I enjoyed the photos of the models.

Their models come with display box, and I believe you may option a stand, and they have suggested lighting. They have bespoke shipping boxes for each model. Everything is built to order.

I have no affiliation to Amalgam.

Any luck on your quest?

I noticed Porsche-Exclusive-Models is active again with several new custom models he's working on (Instagram).
