I have a handful of 1:18 Exotos, but also stopped buying after prices went past $150 or so. If you check their outlet site or subscribe to their emails, you get some good prices on in-stock items, and the offers are coming very often right now.

E.g., they have a 1988 Jaguar XJR-9 Daytona 24 Hr. car on sale for $99 (vs. $298), Ford GT Mk II and Mk IV's, Chapparals, etc. If you don't mind buying the 3rd place version instead of the race-winning version, you can pay a reasonable price.

I also would rather spend the money on my 1:1 cars.
