Really busy tomorrow, so the review of my Hot Wheels Nissan 350Z 1/18th. I got it at Aldi for $10 about 10 years ago.

Accuracy: 7/10

Paint is almost perfect other than playwear and the Z badges being too far back. Wheels can look cheap and engine isn’t too great.

Fit and Finish: 6/10

Engine fits loosely and hood is very difficult to open if you don’t have fingernails. Interior is perfect for price.

Features: 3/10

The trunk doesn’t open. It doesn’t have suspension or anything other than the doors and hood.

Value: 15/10

No that’s not a typo. It was 10$. TEN DOLLARS. It is a great display model for 30, let alone 10.

Rarity: 5/10

Not too rare but not too common.

Total: 36/50

Should you get it? It is the right price or you are a JDM fanboi. Otherwise it depends on your taste, but I quite like it.
