Some of these are re-issues that are available at Walmart with a hauler truck.

I would guess #1 to be a 935 Porsche
#2 Nissan 350Z
#3 Lambo, Murcielago?
#4 DeLorean, or possibly a Porsche 928
#5 Mustang Fastback, somewhere between '65-'68, without details the cars are too similar to say for certain
#6 Mazda RX8
#7 BMW...not sure the model but late '70s-early '80s
#8 Ferrari 308
#9 Lancia Stratos

#1 Ford Capri...early '80s I think, racing
#2 I'll come back to it
After looking again, I don't know. If I hadn't already seen the Lancia Stratos I would be leaning in that direction.
#3 Porsche, recent model late '90s-early '00s
#4 Hard to believe that one is still in the lineup, pretty sure that is the race prepped Toyota Celica from the late '70s
#5 I'm going with third gen Pontiac Firebird until someone convinces me otherwise
#6 Looks like it is broken at the leading edge of the roof. That looks to me like one of the newer Japanese used bars of soap that I don't pay much attention to. I'll defer to someone else
#7 There's the Porsche 928
#8 Not positive, but I would go with Mustang II Trans Am racer from the mid-late '70s
#9 Sure looks like a late model Aston Martin to me (what are we up to now, DB7? DB8?)

Summer has been using that BMW 3.2CSL ever since they started their business. I'm amazed the casting hasn't worn out yet!

This one was released in the 1980's I believe:

...and this one was released in the 90's:

Here's a pair I have marked as Mazda RX-7 racers...posted to compare with the one you have I think looks like a Celica (reminds me of the Tomica Celica racer).

I also have the BMW...with the logo on the base, which they only did a short time at the beginning.
