Ah, no more blurred out wheels...
The 180SX has created quite the buzz since it was announced at Hot Wheels Nationals, and pics a couple of weeks ago only increased it. Time for phase 3. We now have pics of the model in all its glory, with its proper PR5 wheels.
Phase 4 will be once we actually have it in hand.
But phase 3 gives us a full view of this beauty. And yeah, it is a beauty. The 180SX may not be everyone's cup of tea, but this is a collector model through and through. That is the only way a 20-year-old Nissan with sleepy eye headlights could pass in the mainline. It is there because a designer loves it, and the collectors will buy it.
We surely will. This model already enters the Lamley pantheon of great Hot Wheels. Models like the Kenmeri, BMW 2002, Ford Gran Torino, Porsche 934, '55 Gasser, and on and on. Seeing it in true form confirms it as our favorite new model of 2015, and perhaps the last few years. We will see when we have it.
Nonetheless, this model can't come soon enough...
