Default 981 Die cast model

I've been looking for a 1:18 scale model. I usually buy models of cars I've owned. Its a thing, dont judge. It appears there is a model close to mine, but I was recently (way) outbid on it: https://www.ebay.com/itm/28422257836...mkcid#viTabs_0



Does anyone have a line on one?! Doesnt need to be perfect in packaging etc.

Try SelectionRS. I bought a nice 993 model from them. The display box was cheesy and I don’t use it, but for the price the model is nice and the stand is good. A friend who owns many models recommended them.

Choose the American flag icon at the top, and click on the € symbol for a drop down to choose pricing in dollars (rather than Euro).

No affiliation. Just satisfied with my purchase.

When filtered by Porsche it still showed other Marques in the mix, but as I kept scrolling I found several more modern and vintage Porsches.
It’s worth a look.

The 993 model is a Euro spec but I am okay with that. It’s close enough, and I had a hard time finding a 993 model in 1/18.
