I want to vote for the Integra. I know how rare and desirable it is. But I have to go with the Lotus! I just love that thing. |

I like the Celsior aka Lexus LS450. Chrome headlamps and gold-stripe tyres all day every day...

Integra is too good not to vote for in my opinion. A lot of good second contenders though! |

Tough choice between the 3-Eleven and Integra for me, with the Celsior a close third. But I had to vote for the Integra. |

The Mustang II is a Mustang too!

I wanted to vote for the Integra - I even saw one of this generation today. But the casting is off. If I catch that real one again (I've seen it a few times parked at a Turkey Hill on my way home from work - I think the owner works there) I'm going to shoot some pics of it for a comparison. I can't quite put my finger on why it looks off to me, but I know I'm not alone in thinking this. |

I'm with you, Sean. It was explained to me when the Integra was CotD, but the basic shape and proportions still don't quite ring true to me. I have to go with the incredible little green go-kart - another vote for the Lotus. Edited by corvairjim, May 25 2018, 09:38 PM.

Quint Integra all the way. The casting is accurate. I own the 1:64 Tomica and I owned a 1:1 (Gen II). Having one of these in hand also gives you a better perspective than photos. |

A thought on the Honda: I had oft thought the Tomica '90 Nissan 300ZX / Fairlady was a goofy casting that just wasn't quite right. And then came the Limited version, with superb tampo detailing, and blacked out window surrounds, and wheels that better filled the wheel wells -- and all of a sudden, the casting looked like a really good representative of the real thing. I have a suspicion the same may occur with the Quint Integra. With some detailing (black out the rear spoiler and window surrounds like the real car, color the lights, and give it a more appropriate wheel), it just might transform into a swan like the Fairlady did. ![]() Now who is going to give it a try on their rare Quint Integra model??? |

Excellent thoughts Dean. You could work wonders on the Integra. I'd also note a white car or truck does not look best when photographed against a white COTD background. The BRG Lotus and pinkish-red Crown Athlete look better in part because of the white background used, while the Integra and Celsior suffer from that choice. |
