2016 Subaru WRX STI Fast & Furious Jada 1:24










The Subaru Impreza (Japanese: スバル・インプレッサ, Hepburn: Subaru Inpuressa) is a compact car that has been manufactured by Subaru since 1992. It was introduced as a replacement for the Leone, with the predecessor's EA series engines replaced by the new EJ series. It is now in its fifth generation.

Subaru has offered 4-door sedan and 5-door body variants since 1992. The firm also offered a coupe from 1995 until 2001, and a 5-door wagon from the Impreza's introduction in the form of a hatchback. Mainstream versions have received "boxer" flat-four engines ranging from 1.5- to 2.5-liters, with the performance-oriented Impreza WRX and WRX STI models uprated with the addition of turbochargers. Since the third generation series, some markets have adopted the abbreviated Subaru WRX name for these high-performance variants. The first three generations of Impreza were also available with an off-road appearance package called the Outback Sport, exclusive to the North American market. For the fourth generation, this appearance package was renamed the XV (Crosstrek in North America), and is sold internationally. Colloquially, the car is sometimes referred to as Scooby.

Subaru has offered both front- and all-wheel drive layouts for the Impreza. Since the late-1990s, some markets have restricted sales to the all-wheel drive model—therefore granting the Impreza a unique selling proposition in the global compact class characterized by front-wheel drive. However, Japanese models remain available in either configuration.

A 2019 iSeeCars study named the Impreza as the lowest-depreciating sedan in the United States after five years.

1964 Renault R8 Gordini 1:24 Welly












El Renault 8 (Renault R8 hasta 1964) es un automóvil del segmento C producido por la fábrica francesa Renault durante la década de 1960 y principios de la década de 1970. El 8 fue lanzado al mercado en 19621​ manteniéndose en producción en Francia hasta 1971, en Bulgaria (Bulgarrenault) hasta 1970, y en España hasta 1976. En Rumania, el R8 fue producido bajo licencia entre 1968 y 1971 con el nombre de Dacia 1100.

El diseño del 8 se asemeja al Alfa Romeo tipo 103 (1960), debido a que Alfa Romeo y Renault mantuvieron una relación comercial en las décadas de 1950 y 1960.​ Renault fabricó en esa época vehículos Alfa Romeo y Alfa Romeo fabricó en Italia el Renault Dauphine (1959-1964),​ el Renault Ondine (1961-1962) y el R4 (1962-1964).

El R8 (modelo R1130) apareció en julio de 1962 como sucesor del Renault Dauphine. Lo más notable del automóvil era el empleo de frenos de disco en las ruedas delanteras, una característica inédita hasta entonces para vehículos de su tamaño que utilizaban cuatro frenos de tambor. Tenía un motor de 956 c.c. con 44 caballos de potencia.

1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 454 Hot Wheels 1:64









From Wikipedia:
The Chevrolet Chevelle is a mid-sized automobile which was produced by Chevrolet in three generations for the 1964 through 1978 model years. Part of the General Motors (GM) A-body platform, the Chevelle was one of Chevrolet's most successful nameplates. Body styles include coupes, sedans, convertibles and station wagons. Super Sport versions were produced through the 1973 model year, and Lagunas from 1973 through 1976. After a four-year absence, the El Camino was reintroduced as part of the new Chevelle lineup in 1964. The G-body Monte Carlo, introduced in 1970, also used a platform that was based heavily on the Chevelle platform, although it was lengthened ahead of the firewall. The Malibu, the top of the line model through 1972, completely replaced the Chevelle nameplate for the redesigned, downsized 1978 model year.
