Yes they are metal, highly detailed, doors and hood open, just 12 dollars.
Look in the toy section of Wall mart, Toys r us, they sometimes have them. I have just about every exotic car made, all displayed in our family room.

I bought mine on Ebay a few weeks ago. Here is the link http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...EOIBSA:US:1123 It's a little more than the $12 Costco price but I hate shopping in stores and the seller shipped it to me in about 3 days. Just another option for you. BTW, it is an awesome miniature replica with fantastic detail.

Look up Maisto. I have one in black for my car, it's metal and cheap.

I've have a silver and also a red 1/24 scale (metal) that I got from Hobby Lobby in the model section. Under $20, forgot exactly.

The maker is Maisto, there's a website on the bottom of the model looking at it: www.maisto.com

Here's a couple pictures from the website when I searched "Corvette"



They are mostly assembled out of the box and they give you the choice between painted and chrome factory style wheels.

I've got them on a shelf in my office along with some other Corvette models.
