My son and searched and searched for the hot wheels c8r. He spotted one for me a month ago. Awesome

[@tomnichols4956]

Awesome show..........love the details of the C8 R....and I'll be purchasing one of the Mini GT Cars - C8 R

[@billfleming8281]

4th ! Nothing better than waking up and getting a surprise Rick Corvette Conti vlog with a snow storm going on out side ( at least now I have an excuse not to go out to deal with that right now , lol ) . Enjoy the day Fellow Conti Corvette Nation !

[@larrynewberry3500]

That MiniGT is awesome. Ricky going off the wall again. Go Corvette Racing.

[@lwelk273]

At Barret all day! Proud to pull in here with my Rapid Blue tricked out C8. What a car show! Best Rick! Hope to be in a Z06 in my 5 year goal. 🙏

[@kevincopeland5117]

I love buying the diecast!! My wife gets on to me and says did you need another one? Lol.

[@drewpackard6646]

Mr. Conti I love your passion for die cast Corvettes!! Rick,,Stop Dreaming and Start Driving!! Keep it real my friend.👍👊

[@justinreid8851]

I'm loving this obsession. I'm looking for a 1/18 scale of a very detailed C7.R for under 200$. I'm really loving this diecast collection you have here Rick.👍👍 also you were the first Corvette silver / KZbinr that I've seen that shows this collection of diecast. so wait to go!

[@justinreid8851]

Plz inform me where to look. I want the most detailed version of c7.R I can find

[@SocalGT]

@@justinreid8851 Mint Models has one on their website for $190.

[@DHenry-cs8up]

Awesome Rick. I collect 1:64 scale corvettes as well. I've learned that Mini GT / GreenLight and Johnny lightning do a great job with model Corvettes. The demand for the real corvette has also sparked demand for the 1:64th scale corvettes.

[@chriswiebe3794]

I have a few of these also. The 98 c5 blue and yellow indy pace car is mint in the box. There is even a small black c8 where you can still open up the engine bay.

[@tweetybird7668]

bought all my grandchildren the C8Rs for xmas, paid about $5.50 each both yellow and gray and i kept each one for me too

[@KVette-tp5ft]

Guess what i am watching tonight? ........Z06 .............$2.2MM simply a wild guess

[@alaneasterday8327]

Hi Rick, I used to have matchbox cars as a kid. Really like the detailed look. You've got a fun office to work in; so much to see. Have a great weekend!!👍👌👋🙂

[@greghoffman9255]

Cool!

[@DL-lz6pj]

Good Morning Rick

[@SOSZO6ZO7]

Yes, I'll have to admit too that my addiction started a few years ago with that $1 at Walmart !!

[@CarlosFernandez-gh2vk]

Cha-ching…..just ordered both cars online as a result of my OCD (Obsessive Corvette Disorder). 😜

[@RickCorvetteConti]

lol....where did you order yours

I love die cast also! There are multiple vendors at the 24 hours that have the gray C8-R for $20.00

oh wow......now I really wish I had gone!

[@davidramski394]

@@RickCorvetteConti it’s absolutely a great and fun time! Although it’s probably going to be the coldest 24 ever!!

[@charleshayes3877]

Thank you again Rick for a very passionate conversation about Corvette littles. 😂 I enjoy just hearing the excitement in your voice as you talk about all things Corvette. Sending you an email after watching this. See you with coffee tomorrow morning. 👍👍

[@robertjakicic5878]

Collecting die cast cars is a wonderful hobby Rick but an expensive one to. The one thing I found out you start to run out of space to display them.

[@jonathaneissler1463]

I’m a die cast fanatic to! I had to find the C8R on Amazon.

[@seiyakawashima]

Yeah, I played with those little cars including Corvette when I was a kid. They are actually pretty good. You paid over MSRP on a little Corvette? Thank you for your time on this.

[@RickCorvetteConti]

:)

[@msowerby]

Pretty amazing to see the details in the die casts! I love the micro machine..those were my jam when I was a little kid 💪

[@msowerby]

Will have a little packet coming your way! 👍

[@ervanrodgers1875]

Unbelievable! I Can’t believe a C8-R (#191) sold at Barrett Jackson for $330k… I think the z06 will go for $3.1M… exciting times man!

[@thomascoville3155]

Nice VLOG on the die-cast C8.R Rick along with the detail based on who makes them and chasing there availability where to find them kind a hard. I used to collect Dale Earnhardt Senior Die casts for the longest time then gave them up was getting to many and lot became unavailable and were getting expensive. Now the value of those have dropped and doesn't seem like the collect-ability is there any more knowing Dale Earnhardt Senior and Junior drove the C5.R. I do have a C5.R Mouse that is the Yellow No. 3 as a collectible Will be watching Barret Jackson later to night to see who gets the SN 001 which I think could be Rick Hendrick if he's there he owns a lot of Corvettes that are Sn 001. He has a collection of over hundred corvettes or more been to see his collection in Charlotte, NC. Have a great day Rick. Tom from SC.

[@mrodriguez728]

C8 Z06 Ended up selling to Rick Hendricks for 3.7M .It felt at times that the bidding was going to stall out as low as 1M. Glad they were able to raise money for a good cause.

[@jeffspezzano6428]

I like that cartoon drawing of the car! That would make a great T shirt. Where did you get it again?

[@bartongalambos3869]

So, I got the yellow one in and I think the gray one is coming from China. Your video made me do it! They are pretty cool!

[@trafficczar]

I, too, am a VERY passionate die-cast collector of Corvettes since 1981 when I bought my first real Vette. To date I have over 2500 unique vettes in my daughters former bedroom. You still have a standing invite to see and discuss anytime you're in NE OH. Also, always try eBay and look for different sellers to get the best deals. There is a C8 HTC Indy Pace Car coming soon.

[@SteveWille]

Dah… there were piles of Hot Wheels C8Rs at the grocery store before Christmas and I only got one… I should have cleaned them out, or a least bought a second one to hack into a Hypersonic Gray Stingray.

[@RickCorvetteConti]

heck yeah , those are a 1 run only....you wont see them again. That is what I did years ago, would buy a ton of a certain one if I could find it!

[@SocalGT]

Lot’s of Mini GT corvette’s on eBay. Just ordered a #3 & #4 from a vendor for $22

[@RickCorvetteConti]

that's where I found mine!

[@squirtdaddy3428]

Make sure your greedy owners watch the auction, then they figure they can charge accordingly.

[@MrVettester99]

$300,000.00 for the C8R at Barrett Jackson just sold Friday night.

[@RickCorvetteConti]

I know, crazy...we shared that in today's video as well

[@dukebitterman3184]

I recently purchased the 2022 Hypersonic Grey C8r and a friend sent me a copy of the GM patent filed for "Vehicle, Toy Replica, and/or Other Replica". Patent# US D863,104 S . Included on the document is 7 figures of different angles of the car. I also have the 2016 C7r and am looking for a copy of the patent of that car :)

[@RickCorvetteConti]

interesting for sure

[@timothywood1339]

Since vin 1, C8 Stingray went for 3M at Barrett-Jackson, My guess would be in the 5M range for vin 1 Z06

[@robertrehfeldt5149]

The details are something else on some of those die cast. Just saw it on Mini GT’s website that they have one in Rapid Blue..

[@RickCorvetteConti]

Oh yes sir I have it too, even though just a coupe...They have a nice red, yellow and black one too

[@SocalGT]

And the Sebring cars are coming next.

[@robertrehfeldt5149]

[@jeffclayton9968]

Mr. “H” will no doubt add another one to his stable. 3.8million

[@joetrippi1603]

Absolutely it’s going to be his….the is question how much

[@DL-lz6pj]

Great guess, got the purchaser right and almost perfect guess on the purchase price.

[@rogerstephens6118]

You do know that TSM/Mini GT makes a Rapid Blue C8. I have made one into a Christmas tree ornament.

[@RickCorvetteConti]

yes sir, I have it, the yellow, black and red ones too (WINK)

[@chriswiebe3794]

I figured 2M

[@chriscrowell6678]

check out the prices on amazon on C7 Z06 models, die cast etc... been trying to find a 2019 Z06 Torch Red (preferably a convertible but dont think exists) you'd think that would be an easy one.... nope not unless you are prepared to drop 1k

[@leelorentzen1082]

I had SO many Matchbox cars/trucks when I was little .. still have MANY of them. Had a few Hot Wheels as well but preferred the Matchbox. I remember seeing the 1/24th scale Vette when my wife and I came to visit. Where did you get that, or who was the manufacturer if you could please tell me?

How can HotWheels be priced at $1.00 today? I purchased my fist HotWheel die cast car in 1970 from a pharmacy/store and I paid $1.00 back then. Unbelievable!
