Two new rent a racers are coming from ACME in November. We have the 1:18 1968 Shelby GT350H in Dark Green Poly and the second in Raven Black. Each is a first in scale. The attention to detail is also above average with a full 360 approach. Only 350 pieces of each colour will be placed in production. Suggested retail $134.95US.
About the Shelby GT350H Rent A Racers… “For 1968, Shelby rekindled his relationship with Hertz Rent-a-Car to resurrect their “Rent-a-Racer” program with Shelby Mustangs as part of Hertz’s Sports Car Club fleet. However, Hertz had wised up a bit since it ordered 999 cars in 1966, cutting 20 cities out of the program and scaling back marketing. As such, only 224 cars are known to be delivered according to the Shelby Registry, and this time they ordered them in an array of colours. The colours included Dark Green (Highland Green), Raven Black, Medium Blue, Lime Green, Wimbledon White, Candy Apple Red, Gold, and Red.”

Awesome for the price!!! Now listen to me GT SPIRIT, LS and all the other robbers out there : how can you look at yourself in the mirror selling us CLOSED RESIN models for US $155 while this incredibly detailed and fully opening Mustang is selling for less? Could also be talking about some nice Autoworld models too.
