We invite you to browse and take advantage of the information and resources here on the site.

Feel free to ask questions, and make liberal use of the "Search" function to find answers.

I have been known to be a diecast collector in the past and assembled a modest collection. Here is a 1/43 scale in my collection made by Minichamps of a 500e which matched my first real one:
Here is another 500e in 1/43 scale that I bought upon purchasing my second real one since it was blue at the time - made by Minichamps and sold as a 500E 6.5 Brabus (only pic I could find but have more elsewhere):
Last summer, after my car went into the shop for a color change, the only 1/18 scale of a 500e I could locate - in white (specifically, to match the new color of my car) is this 1/18 scale AMG E60 w124 made by GT Spirit and unbeknownst to me, made in limited quantities:
The goal is to locate a crafty modeler who can then modify it to install wheels and mirrors I already bought, and make it look like mine (plus painting the bumper inserts, grill, door handles, turn signals x4, etc.).
For good measure, this is a Hot Wheels 1/64 replica of mine, down to the turbo fans in the front, black 5 spokes in the rear, plus the duck spoiler (and also looks like a roof spoiler - which mine has, no?):
