Edit: Out of stock. Your best bet is to find a company that offers models manufactured by European companies.

Thanks for the link. 1/43 is probably a bit small for my purpose. I want to tape cardboard on and see what aero devices i might build on my car so it would be nice to find a 1/18 scale for that purpose.

That model in the link looks wonderfully detailed though.

Thanks Howie. There are some awesome models there. I want the custom fifties transporter with a mb race car on it for christmas.

Unfortunately I did not see any 123s.

There are 1:18 models out there, a 230E and 240D in fact. Here's the 230E, I don't have the 240D pictures online but rest assured it's somewhat like sand beige in color (this 230E looks to be thistle green)
