![]() Today's Car Of The Day comes from Brett's collection and is Johnny Lightning's 1998 Dodge Viper. ![]()
![]() For more information and pictures of the real car, please visit: Dodge Viper ![]() To say that Johnny Lightning's Poker series was a bit of a dud on the pegs is a bit like saying the Atlantic Ocean is 'somewhat damp'. There were two releases, the first of which had these fuzzy White Lightnings (while the second merely had fuzzy wheels). There are only two White Lightning traits I collect: alternate colors (such if the WL is white compared to the regular red)...or the first series of Poker Chia cars. I love these things. And since almost no one else does, they're among the cheapest White Lightnings! ![]()

Yikes...at first I thought it was covered in green mold! Or maybe it is from one of those B grade movies where everything gets nailed with radiation. I don't think I ever saw the "felt" poker series cars - it is different.

I never saw these. . .(Thankfully) . The only time I ever saw Felt used on or in a die cast car was on the Scar Face Cadillac I had bought two, one to keep as original from the movie and one to custom and I had to remove the tiger stripe felt from the interior.

Just weird. Never seen one. The only other I can think about is Corgi's Lincoln Continental that had a fuzzy felt type of carpet inside? I never had one, my parents stuck to cheaper and smaller Matchboxes. |

If you're talking about the Limo, I just bought one and can confirm there is fuzzy felt carpet. |

I'll be in the minority today and have something positive to say: I do love fuzzy things, and I hope I can find some of these fuzzy white lightnings soon. This makes me smile! |

I have half the set. The great thing about these is they're cheap because no one else likes them. I've never paid more than $10 for one.I love them. I 'justify' them as falling into my collection parameters by rationalizing someone good at topiary has turned bushes into car shapes. |

New casting? Quick! Take it apart!

1.Someone forgot to take off the included car cover. 2. Oooh, they recovered that Viper that ran off the pier ten years ago! 3. The conspiracy theorists are right!! NASA tried to hide this photo of an object on Mars. 4. First place winner at the Annual Pimp Mobile Show |

No. Just no. This looks like some basketballer's dream pimp ride come true. I would laugh if someone actually did this to a real Viper. Or any other car, for that matter... |
