Thinking of going 'All Japanese'!

In clearing out and selling some of my unbuilt kits, I keep feeling I should try to build just a Japanese car collection! That way I can control how many kits I buy!
Just wondering if it will bug me though and I'll have hankerings for other models!
I feel it particularly hard to stay away from Ferrari and Porsche, or some of the Touring cars!
What do you think guys? Unpractical, or is it a really cool idea for a collection and I should stick with it!

Why limit yourself? :D Build what you like...
Your problem is too many unbuilt kits stacking up. You need to make yourself a rule that you can only have so many in boxes, and you can't buy more until you finish one or sell one off. :p
And do you mean only Japanese cars or Japanese kits? I totally understand if it's kits :lol2:

I think you should build just what you want and like at the time.
As you can tell from mine, i build mostly what i like at the time and they all give me satisfaction of seeing them finished.
I think its nice to have different types of cars(road/race/drag etc) to display your many talents of modelling.

Build what you like. I want to get an early 70's Mustang to kind of remind me of my 72 stang that I had in highschool. I'll probably try and find a Mach 1 somewhere. It will look totally out of place in my collection but I don't care. :D

To be honest guys, I think I am going to do it!
Jay's idea of only allowing myself kits when I finish others will never work! I have to actually limit the kits I buy!
making them the good Japanese cars, both road and race, seems a good way of doing that!
So I will put my non japanese cars on ebay, though I can let you guys know what is going, and can sort something out if you are interested!

I had try similar things before, and that made me regret!
I stopped myself buying particular types of cars, and later I found I really like them--but I can't buy them again as they were already OOP.
Building model should be free, why limiting yourself? I can build a green Ferrari too!
