I saw that casting at my monthly diecast meet this evening, but someonebeat me to it. Very nice car!

I can't wait to find one!

I like this one even though the lower half is plastic.

I wonder why it is plastic? Cheaper to make I guess.

It's been out since summer but I never found one in the store. Finally got one at the Greensboro toy show in November.

I've heard of a couple people finding them in Auto stores, like Advance but thats about it. I thought the Ultra Hots are supposed to be Target exclusive now, so why are Auto Parts stores getiing new stuff still? Not complaining, just wondering, I haven't seen any thing new in the UHs @ Target in months.

I think cheaper to make is exactly it.
Especially because the body sides and the entire interior are all the same piece!
Never seen THAT done before!

Sev, I got mine at Tar-jay. :thumbsup:

None of it looks plastic to me...

Sharp car! I like it.
