Except for the polished wheels mine does. Even the license plate is the same!




Is it real or is it Memorex?

Mine looks exactly like the one in the garage. It came with tan interior and I painted it black.

No, its not even the same year. I think 2000 was only year the M.Y. coupe model was made and mine is a '02. Besides that it still looks nothing like the model. There is a guy in my Corvette club that has a C3 model that looks just like his C3. Flames and everything.

I've got one that's a mix of what I've got now, what I want and what I used to have.

1/18th scale TR 2003 coupe modded with Z06 wheels painted black with a silver lip (that was a pain, don't ask) Harness bar, 6-point harness, still had stock seats at the time, Z06 calipers (half-right, got Wilwood SL-6Rs up front now). two-tip exhaust like my Stingers. It also has the GS hash marks painted, and the entire back painted vs. just the lower half.

I need to find another one and start from scratch now that I've got a pretty clear picture of how this car is going to turn out

Looks good.

I look every so often, but can't seem to find one like mine.
I may have to lower my expectations and settle for just finding a TR vert.

I've got a Maisto 1:18 Diecast C5 convertible. It came silver with light gray interior. I stripped it down and painted it black to match my car. The only drawback, the wheels don't match. It's got some CCWs on it from a different C5 model that I swapped in to replace the wagon wheels.

Did Maisto ever make a 1:18 C5 model with polished thinspokes?

I got this model off ebay. It's a 1999 just like mine but the model has gray interior and mine's got black. Aside from that it's got stock exhaust tips and mine's got a catback so I have round and not oval tips. I am going to change that soon though. I'll eventually get a model of the same brand/size with black interior and do that swap too.

Close match

02EBcoupe

Pretty close.

HawkIVette

yeah, that looks just like the real door hinge of a C5.

Almost couldn't tll it from a real one.

Don't I wish...

All mine are Silver with black interiors. The 1:18 and 1:24 from Maisto are actually 2001 models but my 1:24 Revell promo is a 2002 just like my girl!

Haven't been able to find a pewter coupe yet - just an FRC.

I haven't ever found MSG.

How did you get the Z06 wheels on the vert?

Blue 92

Shhhhhhhhhhhhh

It's a Z06 with the top removed.

I need to fab a piece to fill in the deck behind the seats. And either remove the brake ducts from the diecast or add them to the real car.
