I picked up these three today for $12.49 each at costco.

I love this, the paint is so smooth and the wheels look very nice

I really wanted the kyosho version, but its hard to find around here and it's really really expensive!! So I'll settle for this one for now. :)

The 3 of them together. The challenger looks pretty big compared to the M5

Never knew Maisto made M5s. Hmmm, maybe I should check out my local Costco.

hmm I was going to buy that challenger, but it looked so poor in person, but thats just me. M5 looks nice too, I might even buy it:grinyes:

are you talking serious...? :eek:


the challenger and the slr look nice, that SLR is for me the best in the market, because its cool, have the right proporcions and its a low cost car... but the m5, imo it sUx hard, the rear is squarey, those lights are huge and wrong shape... the side waist line is too tall... for me, that M5 is one of the worst efforts by maisto in the past two years... :nono:

yea there is something odd about the headlights, i dont remember even having orange ambers on the side. i would get the m5 from kyosho but here it it cost $110! which is ridiculous. Maybe i should of got the white gallardo spyder instead of the m5 :banghead:

And you didn't get the Lambo why??? Just messing with you. I know how difficult it is to get all you want with so little money... :)

Even if the lights were cleared it would still look different. I'd still get the Maisto M5 with the Kyosho. I need a Costco card now...

are u serious?! damm should of gotten it earlier then :banghead::banghead: might go later to take a look. When did you go?

I wanted to get the m5 because i thought i'd never see it anywhere else again. I didnt even know there was a maisto m5 out until i went to costco and saw it. Hope theres another one there or i might have to settle for something else in the mean time.

yea, i think its just the shape of the headlights. there's amber in the us version m5's. euro versions have clear ones, like my kyosho m5.
