Does anyone know of a model car version of the '09 Solstice Coupe?

DeepBlueGXP · « **Reply #1 on:** February 19, 2010, 08:51:56 PM »

I've had this one for a couple of years, I can't remember where I bought it. Says that it's a limited edition 1 of 15,500 made.

Thats alot more than the actual coupes.

Interesting, and yet neither Matchbox or Hot Wheels ever made a Sky version as far as I know.

Apparently there are a couple of different version from Matchbox available:

I found one of them listed on ebay at:

Interesting that NONE of these are GXP's. Ditto with all the 'vert models out there (AFAIK)

DeepBlueGXP · « **Reply #6 on:** February 27, 2010, 10:03:20 AM »

They were all made based on the concept from 2002 and the GXP wasn't thought of yet.

I just bought a matbhbox solstice coupe on ebay. I'll paint it to look like a GXP.

Congrats, I saw that one.

I have a R/C GXP (gold) that I got at ToysRUs about a year ago, but haven't seen another GXP since.

Bobby, don't have a WallyGreens near us. Would it be possible for you to stop by and pick one up for me? ... only if you're there though, don't make a special trip. Silver Solly Vert by preference, or a red if that's gone. I can get it from you at the MMM7 and pay you then, if that would be OK. (Don't worry about it though, if you don't get there I'll still buy you a beer

)

Thanks, Mark.

I am looking to buy, trade or swap for a "black coupe" matchbox

I have an extra 2008 Red Sky or 2008 Black Opel GT 1:24 scale by maisto both are roadsters

ChopTop · « **Reply #15 on:** March 22, 2010, 09:45:35 AM »

I've been looking on and off for several months now for a coupe, but every time someone post a location I've been beaten to the punch, so I'd appreciate anyone picking me up one.

Anyone ever find a 1/32 scale GXP model? I would like to try modding one so that I can race it on my slot car track, but so far I haven't been too successful finding one.

LiquidPT · « **Reply #17 on:** March 23, 2010, 01:22:10 AM »

all the solstices I've seen are N/A

The only GXP model I'm aware of is a R/C gold I got at Toys R Us.

Yeah it doesn't have to be a model per say, but it needs to be a 1/32 scale. Even if it was a die cast I could use it to make a body shell for what I need.
