The Nissan Silvia S14, by Ottomobile (1/18)

Here's a first. Finally, someone decides to make an eighteenth-scale model of every aspiring-drifter-teen's favorite FWD sports car line, and it's by none other than our favorite resin brand. This is Otto's rendition of the S14-generation Nissan Silvia.

First off, the color - wow! Perfect choice. Thinking back at some of the famed Midnight Purple Skylines, it's pretty clear that purple is the ideal color for Nissan sports cars. I've already fallen in love; there's really no need to continue the discussion. But anyways, one of the things you'll also notice about this S14 is that it's bone stock, like it's straight from a 1993 showroom. Good luck finding an example this clean on the streets today. But that's also what makes this model all the sweeter. The beige-ness of it is admirable. The simplicity of 90's-era Japanese automotive design is well-captured here, from the economy-car wheels to the dull finish on the exhaust. 100% nostalgic.
