There's an Xzibit joke in there somewhere.

I have matchbox cars of all of my cars. It's just good fun!

It must be some sort of achievement to own multiple models of car that Matchbox has made a car of. Matchbox never made a car for my model, but I guess there is always a possibility.

My secret is owning junk that was cool decades ago. Lol

My wife bought me the matchbox car as a "just because" gift about this time last year. It wasn't even 3 months later I got the full-size model. So now I keep the matchbox in my car. I'll put it on the cluster like this when I go to my local cars and coffee as a little easter egg for anyone who looks inside.

She stuffed a few others in my Christmas stocking. I love them. I'd love to have the real things, but I don't exactly have the warehouse to store or the salary to insure them all lol

That's awesome! Gifts like that are the best.
