Default Official Lexus 3GS die cast models

I have had this models of a 3GS for 5 or 6 months. I purchased it at a local lexus dealership. They are actually limited edition, only 2999 of the models are going to be available. I have number 2598. Its a red GS430. I was wondering if any of you guys have seen these or if you own a model. They are pretty cool. They are extremely detailed. They even have a little nav screen, the silver trim around the shifter gate, the trunk has a carpeted mat, and the seat belts all have clips. Pretty cool. I bought it while I was picking up my tanabe exhaust from SS lexus.

They only made 2 colors for the GS430, Red and Silver. The LS460 is available in Black and Silver and the IS350 in Black & Dark Blue. These are all made by Auto Art. There is a white LS460 available made by a different company if I recall.

You can find most of them here on the Lexus Collection website:

To funny guys about the diecast. i used to be pretty heavy into diecast before getting the real 1:1 GS. Are these 1/24 or 1/18 scale at Lexus? Jada makes some pretty cool designs for the GS 430 in 1/64 up to 1/18. I have some 2nd Gen. GS 430's and some Supras in my display cabinet.
