Default diecast LS460 or LS460L Model?

I was wondering if anyone knows if there will be a diecast LS460 or LS460L model comming out anytime soon?

Also how many of you who already own and who are getting in a LS460 or LS460L would like to have a model of the car?


Thanks,
-Joe

I have the real thing, not sure why I would want a diecast model.

I was never one to collect things.

It would be nice to have one. I have a diecast GS400 and haven't been able to find a GX470.

Currently there are Lexus Collection IS and GS only...

http://www.thelexuscollection.com/br...219&itemId=122

...but I've seen LS 430 die-cast models of different sizes, I'm sure the more stylish LS 460/L models will have them soon.

I have both. The IS350 in blue and I have 3 GS430's. one silver 2007, one black 2006, and a red 2006 custom built model that I customized myself.

Do you have any pictures? I have a few diecast models, but they are of aircraft. I used to have a nice diecast Mercedes SL, but it was damaged (ironically by a real Mercedes).

But that was long ago, and I take better care of my new models these days...only I have no room for car models. But maybe in the future I will get a nice Lexus model, I see SC 430s at the Sharper Image in the mall...

I want the real thing instead of a model But AFTER I got one & if there's a well made diecast model available, I may consider it.

I have had the SC430 for 4 years already, I didn't get a diecast model until I saw one that I like a few months ago, I have passed on all the others that I've seen before . . .

Yup those models are expensive. Although I'm surprised you could get a Lexus Collection SC for $10? Must have been a sale.
