Where did you get this? Besides the little shop at Metro, anyone knows if there are any other shops locally that sell these diecasts?

wait wait.... you mean some of us DON'T?

AE86s.

I doubt any one makes a CG5 Accord die cast though hahaha

Sold my entire collection when I sold my car.
I posted the collection on Revscene, but ended up selling everything to someone from NSXPrime.

Still have this collection, although I only owned a white FC Turbo, not the yellow FD

So what fuel economy do you get if you go the speed limit? (picture reads avg of 48km/h ? )

Picture reads average 48km/hour because he went 90 kms in an hour and 48 minutes, not because he wasn't driving the speed limit.

So that includes idle time, traffic time, waiting at red lights etc.

Carry on in my luggage all the way from HK lol. RC stuff is so cheap there.

TL #1: 2008 Silver non navi (leased) but no navi. got rid of it after 2 months because i wanted Navi!

TL #2: 2008 white navi (lease takeover). had Navi. SWEET color but after a year, i transferred the lease to a friend because another friend offered to sell me his 07 TL Navi in carbon grey pearl for super cheap..so instead of leasing, i purchased the 07.

TL # 3: 2007 Carbon Grey navi (purchased). This was my fave..BUT i made the foolish mistake of trading it in towards an 08 RDX Tech. This was a disastrous trade and i will admit it. NEVER AGAIN!

TL # 4: 2008 silver (purchased). Traded in the above 08 RDX tech for this certified TL. I will be holding onto this for a min of 5yrs before exploring hybrid options next time around.

I cannot seem to adapt to the 09+ styling of the 4th gen TL... it still looks as hideous as ever... plus the 3G is still one of the best looking sedans on the roads today even though the design dates back to 04.

I'm not an aggressive driver so my commute from downtown Vancouver through rush hour traffic back into North Delta averages 8.5 ~ 9.0 L/100km and i would think that is terrific fuel economy for a very reliable 3.2 V6. I did make an offer on a 08 TypeS but the dealership would not accept so I went for the base instead. I opted for smooth suspension over sport because I commute everyday for 1.5hours.

Just hurts seeing that fuel milage. Im at 16.3 litres per 100 kms :(

Where can I find a first gen cts-v diecast :D
Posted via RS Mobile

I had 14-15L/100km when I had my 3G! How the hell do you get 8, unless you don't live in Richmond and gets stuck behind c-lai's.

I dumped my ex because she banged the door shut so hard everytime she got out of my car ...

Got it to the right height, now I just gotta finish the paint.

Where'd you get the lift!

If I found an E38 diecast model, sure.

Edit: Found one http://www.ebay.com/itm/1-24-BMW-750...item1e6bf67481

Gonna pick it up next month, I think.

Here you go ! The lift moves up/down with a little toggle which is battery operated.
