Scale Die-cast Assembled Models Of '98 VR-4?

[stymie]

I would like to obtain a scale model of my car... a '98 MITSUBISHI 3000GT VR-4 (Glacier Pearl White Metallic). 1/18 & LARGER would be sweet. Actually, something a foot or two long would be awesome! I'm not interested in plastic kits, glue & spray paint unless it's already fully assembled. Having pets, other committments & a serious lack of spare time, prevent that.

So, does anyone have a source for this elusive item?

TIA,

-John

i know you can get little models of the stealth TT's, hotwheels of the Spyders, and some models of the 94-96 body style 3000GT's, I don't recall ever seeing a 98 style 3000GT model.

As far as I know one does not exist.

here is a decent list of what is out there.

If you REALLY want one, I can edit my 3d model to be a 98 (it's a 94) currently and then have it printed in 3D somewhere. Bad news is it's $$$$ and you'll end up with a matte plastic finish.

I picked up this sweet one about 2ish years ago at a closing KB toy store.

Thanks! Your responses are certainly appreciated. Over the years, I've surfed the web w/o any success. I was hoping to snag a promotional model like the ones dealerships sometimes get. I have a plastic '92 AMT/ERTL White DODGE Stealth R/T TT; I'm guessing it's 1/25 scale. I'd think that even after all these years, someone would have produced a '98 or '99 VR-4 for some of the bigger kids on the block. It would be totally awesome to have a metal model around 1.5' long with working suspension, mags & rubber tires plus the usual opening doors, hood & hatch. Some R/C models are fairly detailed; someone missed a wonderful opportunity to make it happen. Maybe, one of these days?

I was in contact with a designer at Jada toys a few years ago trying to get a 3000GT die cast produced.

Nothing ever came of it, and he either left the company or grew tired of my bugging him and had not responded to my last 3 contacts. That was about ...3 years ago.
