WoW!! I WILL be getting one of these, even though I don't do 1:18. I think I will be satisfied with either color though I prefer the white.

http://milezone.comwhat do you mean by the "regulars" is there much of a difference, i only knew about the authentics.

88Cutty,

There are 2 versions (actually 3) of American Muscle......

American Muscle Mass: This line is avialable anywhere to all Mass and Hobby dealers. Many of the trunks do not open in this line. Retail is $27.99 - $29.99

American Muscle Hobby: This line is only available to the Hobby distributors. Production run is anywhere from 2,500 to 5,000. Lately the new models have been sporting suspension, opening trunks, and a bit better detail than Mass. Retail is $34.99 - $39.99

American Muscle Authentics: As you all know this line is top notch. Most replicas sport over 150 parts. Opening doors, hood, and trunk. Carpeting, soft seats, working visors, working driveshafts and suspension, and enginework that is incredible! In my opinion you cna compare these to any Franklin/Danbury Mint and Authentics win hands down. Not only for detail, but you also get a larger vehicle at a lower price.

Hope that helps. :-)
