1 18 Scale Model Cars

The Your Name Here Collection: 1 18 Scale Model Cars

1 18 scale model cars are probably the number one option when it comes to the Poor Man’s Car Collection. We can’t all be millionaires, so it may seem that it’s not quite fair that only millionaires get to collect cars.

Well, that’s the appeal of 1 18 scale model cars. Put them in the window sill facing your driveway and pretend you own the real thing!

But in all seriousness, if you haven’t in awhile, take a look at some 1 18 scale model cars. The level of detail (depending on the manufacturer) can be astonishing at times, replicating every last detail down to the screws on the back of the license plate.

The coolest are the ones with real working parts: Car doors that spring open, steering wheels that turn the front wheels, some of them even have adjustable rearview mirrors.

What we call these 1 18 scale model cars is: Toys for big boys. These are the sort of toys that you save for yourself and try to keep your kids from seeing!

Another great thing about scale model cars is how surprisingly durable they are. As long as you’re storing them properly, they’re made out of die cast metal and tend to be pretty rough and ready. They stand the test of time is what we’re getting at here. A die cast car can last for generations.

As with all collector’s items, most of them actually don’t become invaluable. Die cast cars do tend to appreciate in value, but it’s really that one in a thousand rarity that ever becomes a scarce commodity... And you’ll only stumble upon that discovery if you start collecting.
