They won't have the Maxima. I've talked to the Hotwheels guy. My friend is the owner of Vitek Performance and he's got a couple of his project cars being made into Hotwheels. At NOPI this year, he introduced me to the guy at Hotwheels responsible for choosing the cars and tried to get my car used as a model since Vitek heavily sponsors me. Basically the Hotwheels guy had a good laugh, and I agree with him. They'd sell like 4 of them if they ever made the Maxima. They're only interested in doing Supra's, Eclipse's, Civics, Focus, WRX, and they should have one for the new 350Z. 4 door sedans is definitely not the direction they're taking with this.

How hard is it to make a Maxima hot wheels. If they sell hot wheels for $1.00 how hard is it to produce the Maxima. Cost them maybe $.10 per car. And then with the about 500 people on this board that would buy it thats 500 profit alone with us.

Um, it costs like $100K for a mold minimum. And the tuner cars they're doing now are like $30 or so, not $1. And you can't think that Mattel would actually care about $500 in profits, they're a billion dollar company.
