Default All The Models. Model Search. (Pics)

Sorry, Not the chicks....

I am asking you guys if there are any models I might want to add to my C5 collection.

I have the white 97 C5 starting in the far right corner, and finishing with the silver 04 C5 in the far left corner. Each virtical line is new year(in the first pic).

Is there a rare color?
Am I missing any pace cars?

I soon will be adding the C5R's to the collection.
I know they run differant numbered C5R's. (yellow # 2,3,4,63,64) (blue # 50,53,63)
I know they had a white one. Maybe the first one? (# 73)

What am I missing?
Any ideas or info will be appreciated. The models here are the 1/25 scale. (They come un-painted)

Thanks, Ken.



Some fun pics...












Final resting place...

Very collection. The one rare color that pops into mind is the aztec gold that come out on the '98 I believe - only about 5 or so were made due to paint issues.

You're also missing medium purple metallic, also known as MAJESTIC AMETHYST METALLIC that was a rare color as well.

Do you have a CE LeMans Blue? Also there was a gold color that they had a lot of paint matching problems with and only made a few...instant collectables I would say. forget the name.
