About this deal

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.

White & blue striping on roof and hood, Detailed headlights, Ford logo, '22' on hood, 'Powered by Ecoboost' on sides Orange Stripe across top, '8' on sides & hood, headlights, 'Gulf', 'Autolite', 'Firestone' & HW logo on sides Orange front end turning into stripe along hood, roof, & trunk, "6" on sides, hood, & trunk, various sponsor logos on sides, Gulf logo on hood & sides, painted taillights Specialty: With a 427 V8 engine, fiberglass hood with scoop and two 4-barrel carburetors, this rare racing dragster was made to fly down the fast lane. The 2010 Ford Mustang GT was based on its redesigned pony car casting, debuted in the 2008 L.A. Autoshow Giveaway and 2009 New Models.

Nevermind 1995, even by today's standards it is a supercar of supercars. The quad-turbocharged 6.0-liter V12 puts out an estimated 720 horsepower, the body is constructed completely of carbon fiber and top speed is somewhere in the 250 mph range. The only hints that it's not a modern supercar is the all-navy blue interior, and wheels that are decidedly not from this decade.

Orange stripe across top, '8' on sides & hood,headlights, 'Gulf', 'Autolite', 'Firestone' & HW logo on sides. White striping along top & sides, "4" on sides and trunk, 'Gumball 3000' logo on rear quarter fenders & hood Specialty: With a racing-based engine, the 3.5-liter V6 produces more than 600 horsepower to bring the racecar to the streets. An up-angled grille, downforcing active rear spoiler and butterfly doors give this superlight supercar what it takes to rule the neighborhood!After the initial fanfare died down and the dust settled, the car went into storage and was forgotten for the next decade and a half. In the last few years, it has just recently been making rounds at auto shows and showrooms again, and was even yanked from being put on an auction. The car is currently on display at Hajek Motorsports Museum in Ames, Oklahoma. The Hot Wheels model of the car, however, can be found more easily. Orange stripe op top & sides, Dark Blue "15" in White circle on sides & hood, HW, Ford & Gulf logo on sides A supercharged 5.2-liter V-8 cranking out 760-hp @ 7,300 rpm, and 7-speed dual clutch transmission work in concert to make this, "The most powerful street-legal Ford vehicle of all time." 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.
