    So earlier today I bought a Nissan GT-R hotwheels car, and it got me thinking if maybe they made Tacomas too? Then I thought it would be even cooler if they had bigger die-cast metal ones, and tried looking into it. I found a couple of ugly ones, and I was wondering if anyone on TW knew any info on where to look them up at? I think it would be a nice addition to the desk. :rolleyes:

    I dont know if it is possible, but I think it would be bad ass if you could get your truck in a die cast model. It wouls probably be very expensive though

    Until your actual truck ends up with so many cosmetic mods that you can't match it with the model. :p
