I collect them too. (Fave is the Maxima so far)

Is it possible to get brochures from other companies that are not available from other countries?

I have a "few" laying around. My favorite though is one from the late 50's (maybe early 60's) for the DAF 750 Variomatic.

I don't really collect them, but I did keep the ones for both VR4s and the Delorean.

Derek - i still have that garbage-bag full of brochures that you gave me the very first time we ever met. haha. i think there's at least 100 in there.

every time i go to the big Toronto Auto Show, i grab at least one brochure from every stand, and most of them are lying around in various places in my room/basement. i also keep the ones that are inserted into the British car magazines that my mom buys me whenever she goes over. but obviousley the gem of my collection would have to be the UKDM Skyline R34 brochure that i requested on the internet. me and Derek both requested them on the same day at his house, but only i got one and i still cherish it to this day. i even kept the envelope, which was all-black with a simple "GTR" logo on the top right. Derek has tried many times, unsuccessfully, to acquire it from me...
