Before anyone asks, YES, I did do a search but most of the results were old. I've got it in my head that I REALLY want a diecast metal P5 for Christmas. Google searches and ebay seaches turned up nothing so I figured I'd ask the experts

1. Do they exist?

2. Where can I find them?

3. How much can I expect to pay?

Thanks!

I hate to say it but the P5 isn't any more interesting than any other common car on the road. Although a very cool car, if I may say so myself, it just doesn't have a big enough fan base like Hondas do. Finding a model of one would be just as easy as finding one of a Kia Rio.

I know. I was just hoping beyond hope that in some factory, somewhere in China, there was a 1/18 scale P5 just waiting for me to find it. But I guess not.

when I owned my Jeep cherokee, i figured, you know, after making THE EXACT SAME BODY STYLE for nearly 20 years, they'd have an actual diecast of the thing. Nope. Had afew matchbox cars, but, nada!

Sucks that my next vehichle doesn't have a diecast of it either. My first car, 74 caprice classic had one! Can't buy it anymore. My granddad owns one he painted up to match perfectly.

Thanks!Yes, they do exist. I have one from the micro machine collection. The car does not go by protege5...try 'Audacious'.

Thats not fair right there! I'm telling you, if you look hard enough, you can find a diecast model of the most obscure and boring cars...but no P5!

if some1 becomes a vendor and makes a nice detailed one like that sedan 323, i'd definitely buy one xD

Yeah, the more "obscure" the car, the higher the value. A 1970 Opel Gt will set you back $70-90, and that is a current production by MiniChamps. I'd give a pinky for a 1:18 scale p5!

You're not the only one. I'd be willing to pay $40 for one. And I'm rarely willing to pay $40 for anything!

Just pay no attention to how much it resembles an Audi RS6 Avant (glare)

If I painted it to match my car it would hardly be noticable that it wasn't a P5. Where did you get it, WAL*MART, Target, Toys_r_us?

Found it at Walmart and I am pretty sure I have seen them at Toys 'R' Us as well. It is a matchbox and so far I have seen them in blue, black, a dark grey and now red.
