Im waiting for the 1/18 scale to be released. There is a company that is selling. Its a resin model meaning its a sealed model, meaning the doors, hood, trunk, etc dont open. Its not a die cast metal model. But resin plastic.

Usually, resin models are very precise and very detailed with the exception of them being sealed, they are awesome. But this C8 model from Top Speed, there is something off putting about it. The link is from a local hobby shop. Availability date: 3rd April

Chevrolet Corvette Stingray C8 2020  Black -  Top Speed 1/18 - TS0283  - Passion Diecast

I may hold off on it as I dont like the colour either, I wouldnt want it in black. They do make a red one, it looks nicer, but none of the local hobby shops seem to be wanting to sell it.  Actually, the only local hobby shop to advertise the C8 is this one...and only in black...

I think the company AutoArt will come out with one too. Im praying actually. They have gone resin as well with their current stuff, but I think if AutoArt comes out with a C8, it might be the Z06 (or equivalent) that they will offer.  I will just be patient. I dont think Ill buy this one. 

And I think my collection will be officially done with the addition of a C8 Corvette.
