Well not actual Hotwheels cars but still 1:64 scale cars...hell ANYTHING Fox body these days is a miracle. I also came accross a '92 GT vert model but it was a lowrider and really stupid looking, but i may still pick it up and put my own wheels and such on it.

I tried to get some pics...the brand is Maisto G Ridez....yeah kinda ricerish but the cars don't look bad. They're pretty closely detailed but they're not as good as the Johnny Lightning cars. The interiors from what i can see look more custom than stock but hey, whos isn't?

Looks about like 18'' Saleen rims to me. The body kit is a little exaggerated but i'm not complaining...at least it's a start. Maybe now some Fox body recognition will start sprouting up again. I plan on buying every one i can get my hands on

Lol, my soon to be wife has been buying matchbox cars for me forever as a gag joke. I should tell her that they have foxbodies now. She could never find them.

Thank god! Thats really good to see. I absoutely love these cars.

You can't deny it, they're becoming the next classic muscle car... And they are getting rarer, the remainder of them are getting ****ed up and beat to death as pure drag cars... (you can tell a lot of them are getting old and used up by watching a few episodes of pinks.. ****, its always two foxes.) So hold onto them.

Everyone talks about Johnny Lightning but guys, they're not in production anymore! Also are we all talking about Fox bodies here because i've never seen a true Hotwheels Fox??? Maybe waaaay back in the day but not in the present.

Nice finds! I've seen the blue one in a 5 car set but didn't want to pay for the other 4 cars....

You are correct it's been a long time since Mattel has marketed a Fox body, even then it was incorrectly labelled as an SVO.

This is the last JL Fox that I've found and it was about 6+ months ago. I like the Fox and I like the Turbo Cobra, but I don't like this paint job on this body.

You my friend are dead wrong. They come out with a new series every year. they already have new ones out. The one posted above is a 2006 model.. Also Mattel still has a fox body stang in production. Its harder to find but its still made. Ive been collecting lil die cast cars for 8 years and have a couple Fox bodied stangs from 2002 until now.

That's cool ... but when did the official spelling of the plural form of the word "ride" change to include a "Z" at the end? Is it pronounced differently? "Ry-deez?" "Rih-dez?" "Rih-deez?" Ugh ... hurts my brain to think of the possibilities. Why couldn't they have just stuck with "Hot Wheels," and left it at that?

Anyone ever seen a Hot Wheels notchback, lately? You'd think that, with as many of 'em as you see on the track, someone would've started marketing those by now...?
