Scale Diecast Models of 3.2 911 Carerras?

oly · oly's Garage

Does anybody know where to find these? I've looked and haven't found any. A simple kit would be okay too.

I'm looking for a coupe, 1:24 scale or bigger, preferably without a sunroof, and want to spend $100 or less.

Premium Classixxs in Germany is working on a large scale (1:12) Carrera 3.2. These are mainly sold through the Porsche Museum.

Minichamps makes some nice models, as do several others.
Try Ebay. There's a pretty big post on models-

911 Diecast

Autoart is supposed to be coming out with a red 3.2 coupe in 1/18 but i haven't seen any others as of yet.......

I have a red Carrera 3.2 Speedster in 1:18. They are pretty rare. I can post a pic tonight if you are interested.

I bought one of these and think it's nice. I have the red one which is almost exactly my car. If you do decide to buy be aware that this guy takes forever to ship. The brand is NZG Modelle made in Germany.

CurtEgerer,
That one looks very nice but will probably exceed what I want to pay; about $100.

Paul K,

Thanks for the link.

speedracer,

That Autoart one would be perfect. But I've been on their waiting list for that car for two years and they still don't know when they will have it. So I've pretty much given up on them.

LeRoux Strydom,

Thanks for the post. But I'm only interested in the Coupe.

David in VA,

That looks interesting. How can you tell that yours is a Carrera 3.2 and not an SC?

The fog lights are different.

StayGold808,

Is there any particular seller that you used that might still have some? Or were they single models?

Quicksilver,

Okay, thanks.

Cheers,

Tim,
it was supposed to be released this summer- #MIN100063020. My local hobby store doesn't carry Minichamps- I found an online outfit that could pre-order, but they had no idea when it would be available. I'll keep checking...

Cheers,

Paul.

oly,

there were sellers that consistently have porsches but i forget now. Just search and there will be plenty.

Paul K,

I've had that one on pre-order from diecastmuscle.com since January of 2004 when it was $58. Last time they notified me, the price went to $76 but they still had no idea when they would get it. So I'd pretty much given up on it. But those pictures mean that they must have a prototype so that is encouraging.
