Scoobyghost Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 I'm looking to buy a model of a classic impreza for my boy as a keep sake. Just wondering who makes the best/most realistic replicas of the classic impreza. It doesn't have to be rally decaled. Looking for brand new so I can keep it boxed. I still have a few cars my grandad left to me and they hold great sentimental value. Thanks in advance! [emoji4] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stants Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 How much do you want to spend ? There was a thread a week or so ago about Die cast models. I know some are silly money ? Reminds me I still have half a z tune skyline to finish building Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoobyghost Posted March 27, 2015 Author Share Posted March 27, 2015 I'll pay good money for a good model. Top budget would be £100 but for that I want all singing and dancing. I've always built nitro buggies and cars myself but he's still a bit young for that. I'll keep this car safe until he's old enough to understand what it means.

Jay762 Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 It was Petes recent purchase that triggered that discussion some examples http://www.diecastlegends.com/diecast-brands/ixo?filter_action=0&filter_name=Marque&filter_value=Subaru&filter_type=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooby Pete Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Autoart are the best but they haven't produced any scoobs for awhile so it's a sellers market. They do various sizes 1:16 1:43 ect Here's a list of subaru models, rather than buying direct eBay is a good source for them. http://www.autoartmodels.com/product.web.ViewProducts.do?field0=pd.brandId&key0=41&orderBy=ps.rank,pd.productCode,pb.brandNameEn&sortDirectionStr=1,1&st=make.title&localeId=en Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gambit Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 I got a corgi one I'm pretty happy with only a 1:43 scale never had it out the box but looks well detailed. Was near the £100 I got it reduced from £40 for about £22 with postage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stants Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Funnily enough I had to go to my old dears today to drop some furniture off and she had both of the unfinished gtr's out and was asking me what I'm doing with them, unfortunately the 32 has had a run in with a small child and one of the wheels has been ripped off. But it's given me the urge to get them finished. So I reckon we should immerse our inner geek/child/collector and get em out for the lads so to speak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
