REMEMBER CARS:
REVIEWING MINIATURE BIMMERS!
THE CONTENDERS:� Johnny Lightning, Hotwheels, and Matchbox!
Johnny Lightning's 007 Collection BMW-Z8 Hotwheels BMW Z3 & Matchbox BMW Z3
From the front, the Lightning Z8 shows the contrasting black of the grill vents, while both Mattel products paint over the entire grill area.� Notice the strong black and indented seams between the hood, bumpers on the Lightning.� The dark red Matchbox version has stronger indentations and seams than the orange Hot Wheels.
The Lightning has wheels that mimic a real BMW and has rubber tires with a real tread pattern. The two Mattel cars come with standard great rolling wheels which a great for play.
The red Matchbox comes with a hot looking graphics on the sides.� The Hotwheels version has a Hotwheels graphic on the trunk.� The Lightning version actually takes a shot at replicating the BMW logos on the hood and trunk.
The BMW Z8 from Johnny Lighting wins this comparison test.� While the Matchbox and Hotwheels are great for play, the added features of the Lightning Z8 and James Bond collector card provide more for an additional $3 or so!
