#8 of 14582 New RR has by rsholland Mar 25, 2002 (12:22 pm)
shark gills... The Aurora engine is probably expensive, like any DOHC V8 unit. Since the Park Avenue is marketed as a "premium" car, it makes sense. It's positioned just under a Caddy DeVille. Bob

For some reason GM is addicted to that big 3.8l engine. I guess they have it figured out and it's cheap to just keep making it. It is nice and torquey, but Buick will have older buyers as long as GM doesn't offer something in that price range comparable to the G35 (3.5l, 260 normally aspirated horses). -juice
#10 of 14582 1:43 scale models by rsholland Mar 25, 2002 (12:31 pm)
I've never cared for models that small. I've never found the detailing to be very good. It's just too small to get it right. Although, these models look pretty good for 1:43. I much prefer a larger 1:18 scale model. BTW, I saw in London in Sloane Square, a few years ago, a gorgeous British Racing Green Jaguar XK SS, like the model displayed. Bob

AAK! Still no Forester models. I've seen countless catalogs and not one single Forester model! Yet it's the 2nd best seller in the lineup, what gives? -juice

Looks like I've found a home for my often meandering, off-topic discussions... Thanks Karen. Bob

#14 of 14582 1/18 AutoArt WRX Wagon by jei Mar 25, 2002 (12:45 pm)
is listed as coming out soon. I want one. Also hoping for a Forester model. John
#15 of 14582 Are all those models shown 1:43 scale? by rsholland Mar 25, 2002 (12:47 pm)

#16 of 14582 AutoArt 1:43 Scale by jei Mar 25, 2002 (1:00 pm)
model range has the largest number of cars, including Legacy wagons! There are a few Imprezas also in the 1:18 scale series. AutoArt makes beautiful stuff.

John, was the 1/18th listed somewhere?
