Hot Wheels - Gran Turismo - Limited Edition Set of 8 Diecast Cars

Product Information

The Porsche 962 was a highly successful endurance prototype sports car designed by Norbert Singer. Introduced in 1984 as an evolution of the previous 956, the 962 complied with both GTP and Group C regulations. Powered by a 2.6L Type 935/76 flat-6 with one or two Kühnle, Kopp & Kausch turbochargers, the 962s were highly competitive in whatever races they entered, usually taking the win or at least a podium position. The 962s were so competitive that they were still winning races ten years after it was introduced, at which point numerous other cars had long obsoleted them; Team Taisan had the honors of taking the last ever competitive victory in a 962 in the All Japan Grand Touring Car Championship (now known as Super GT) in 1994. 91 chassis were produced in-house by Porsche, with additional being produced by other privateers such as Joest or Kremer.

Specialty: Equipped with cutting-edge technology, an aerodynamic design and a powerfull 500 hp engine. The Renault Sport RS was built for speed, performance and winning.

To recoup the costs associated with the design and tooling, Bob convinced Mattel to modify the existing tooling to alter the appearance of the car just enough that it wasn't exactly a DeLorean any more. The version was re-named "Turismo" and sold in 1981. The gallery photos (courtesy Bob Rosas) of the silver car show one of the few surviving prototypes made from the unmodified tooling.

In a relatively short period, there were over 80 variations of these vehicles on the market. And they all had at least two things in common: a similar blister card design, and the co-molded CM6 wheels. As you'd expect, the revival of the Speed Machines series means that those two defining elements are still part of the equation today. Silver + Orange stripes on top and sides, Gulf Logo and "03" on hood, Michelin, F1, Gulf, "03" on sides, Front + rear lights With a massive center air intake, meaty front end, and twin-turbo V6 engine, the sky's the limit for this GT! Specialty: With a rear wing and front chin spoiler, rear diffuser and a support frame, this mid-engine supercharged V8 single-seater was made for 24 hours of racing.In 2015, Hot Wheels paid tribute to Turismo with two new versions of the current DeLorean cast that replicated the red and yellow #10 paint job. One is gloss red, the other is Spectraflame. Detailed headlights, Red & White stripes on sides & top, 'McLaren' and orange Hot Wheels logo on sides, chrome interior

While the CM6 design has been updated, some people have complained that these are not Real Riders which means the tires are plastic. At least they look better than the standard, mainline wheels, and the base is made out of metal. And it's good to see that this new series also has a hidden Chase model to look for. And, at the end of the day, you can always choose to skip buying a new set from Mattel, as there's a good chance that something more interesting will pop up in no time.Pink, White and Silver Decals, Xbox, Forza Horizon, Renault Sport on Front Window and Spoiler, R.S. 01 on Side and Hood Detailed taillights, GT logo on hood, sides & rear, 'Gran Turismo' on windshield, '5' on sides & rear The McLaren F1 GTR is a high performance racing version of the standard McLaren F1 used in GT racing. Designed by Gordon Murray and powered by a 6.1L BMW S70/2 V12, the F1 GTR was a successful race car, winning 38 races of the over 120 races it participated in. The car was manufactured in numerous different configurations. 28 chassis of the 106 F1s produced were GTRs; these were raced as late as 2005. The 2009 Nissan GT-R depicts a RHD (Right-Hand Drive) version of the Nissan GT-R for the Japanese Domestic Market. The base of the casting reads Renault Sport RS; this was changed for 2023 to Renault Sport R.S. 01.

This casting features a removable engine cover and a flexible plastic wing which is often found bent. The casting was retooled for the mainline in 2023, featuring a metal wing and a non-removable engine cover. With circular taillights, twin turbocharged engine and all-wheel drive, this supercar has colossal capabilities. The base of early versions of the casting reads McLaren F 1 GTR. Despite the name, this casting actually depicts a McLaren F1 LM as it features the two side seats not present on the GTR racing models. The casting lost its plastic wing when it entered the mainline for the first time in 2017; the plastic wing reappeared in 2018 when it was used in the Gran Turismo series as well as the Gulf Car Culture series due the fact the original casting tool still exists in the Thailand factory. As of 2022, this remains the only overall victory at Le Mans of a car without a reciprocating engine, a feat unlikely to be repeated; this was also the last overall victory for a Japanese manufacturer at the race until 2018. Five chassis were produced. It just so happens that the newest appearance isn't quite as innovative as you'd think. The Hot Wheels Speed Machines series has been a thing ever since 2010. Mattel wanted a different approach to the world of 1/64th scale model cars, so this line didn't include any fantasy machines. As the name suggests, Speed was the key feature so all of the collectibles released were either sports cars, supercars, or race cars.Orange stripe op top & sides, Dark Blue "15" in White circle on sides & hood, HW, Ford & Gulf logo on sides The Mazda 787 and 787B are Japanese endurance prototype race cars developed by Mazda for competition in Group C in the World Sportscar Championship for 1990 and 1991. Designed by Nigel Stroud, the car was powered by a 2.6L R26B four-rotor engine. First competing in 1990 to mixed success, the car was upgraded to "B"-spec in 1991. It was at the 1991 24 Hours of Le Mans where the 787B saw its greatest success, where Bertrand Gachot, Volker Weidler and Johnny Herbert, racing for Mazdaspeed, won the race; while the car may not have had the pace of the cars it contended against, the 787Bs were significantly more reliable than its competition. After 1991, rotary engines were banned from competition; Mazda would replace the 787B with the MXR-01 the next year, which saw mixed success.
