  Eh, my intro isn't here? ^^
  
  Anyways,
  As most of you know already and have dealt with me before, I am Arjun. Probably the only Indian in the group?
  
  Anyways I started off with a Bburago 1/18 Red Ferrari 360 Modena which I bought on impulse from a shop beside Comics Connection shop in West Mall. =)
  That was about 5 or 6 years ago.
  
  I mainly collect Ferraris in 1/18 and 1/43 sizes. I had owned a 1/12 Lambo Murc before. I have/am also collected/collecting rare Mc Laren F1s and I think they are the most perfectly shaped supercars ever to be made.
  
  I admire many cars but I really love Ferraris because they have a spirit of their own I think.
  
  I like surfing ebay looking for over the top models which I won't be able to spend on in the near future. And will day dream at them while ogling away.. ^^
  
  Right now I have more 1/43s then 1/18s and am looking for all kinds of rare McLarens. I generally don't buy anything made by AutoArt, because I believe that if its an AutoArt then its not rare.
  
  Alrighty.. I think thats enough of an intro. I am sure even though u all know me, you would have learnt something new from this post :p

  I'm new here..i always frequent the Cars and Chit Chat forum..lol..
  
  i simply LOVE the McLaren F1 and I am currently trying to find someone willing to sell one die-cast model of it to me..I know it's ultra rare now and no longer on sale..I guess it would be a long journey ahead of me before I can get one of it..
  
  If you ask me I would prefer Lamborghini over Ferrari..Ferraris have screaming engines and Lamborghini have rumbling engines..and it's the character of the Lambo's engine that I like about..
  
  I'm currently making a 1:24 Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren Tamiya model..about to be completed..Left the outer body only..the only problem I have now is deciding on the exterior colour..was thinking of spraying it metallic black......
  
  Here's some pics of it:

  Hi everyone, I'm Nicholas. I joined in December last year but never really posted. But I read most of the topics here over the past months. Okay so, I'm 14, male, from Malaysia. My model car hobby kicked off when I got a Hotwheels 1/18 McLaren Mercedes F1 car for getting good results in my exam in year 2000. I got really into this hobby in year 2004, when I got my first AutoArt, a 1/18 Mazda RX8 in yellow. Now, I have 18 1/18s (8 AutoArts and 1 Minichamps) I mainly collect road-going supercars in 1/18 scale. I'm currently waiting for my Kyosho 1/18 Ferrari F40 in red to arrive from Jacky (probably in next Thursday/Friday)
  Thanks to coolgeek84 for introducing me to this great club. Thanks to M1rag3 for helping me out about stores in Singapore.... and most of all.. thanks to HeXy for reminding me to introduce myself here!
  
  I LOVE this club!

  Hey guys, Aaron here. I love cars. Especially muscle and old american cars. Chevvy, mustangs, and whatnots. The only diecast model I have, is a Miura, which some of you have already seen. Sadly. But in time to come, my collection should widen. I'm only 17. And I stay in the northern part of Singapore. I'm definitely looking forward to my stay here, and everyone's splendid collections.
