I was just noodling around some HO slot car sites and noticed some deals to be found on some "collectible" HO cars for sale out there. Scale Auto has determined all of these cars to be collectible and have some steep prices listed on some. A quick browse through North Coast Performance Hobbies shows some deals to be had if you're a collector.

Check these out for yourselves:

Hmmm Ferrari and Williams are very diffrent cars, One Jordon is a Listed X2 the other a X3 ( Mind you the only diffrenc eis that stamp on the chassis to tell the two apart.).

Opps looked at the Williams Ok NCPHobbies have a pic of a Ferrari there....Bloddy yanks don't know what a Ferrari is? LOL

Stealth again one a x3 one a x2...But again you'd have to be a pretty pickey collector to pay more.. lol..But on the ferrari and Williams definatly not the same animal...
