Their price is a bit high. You might want to try this on-line store which sells for about $10 less:

Re: Diecast 350GT

There are two mfrs that now make the Skyline GT; Ebbro and J-Collection. Both are in 1/43 scale (about 4.5"), are diecast, and are available through EWA and other vendors. While the J-Collection is good, I prefer the detail, quality and overall accuracy of the Ebbro.

Re: Diecast 350GT

When are they going ot make 1/18 Scale models?

I think 1/43 is a little too small for me.

Re: Diecast 350GT

I would imagine that it's just a matter of time before AutoArt, Kyosho, Ebbro or Maisto do a 1/18. While 1/18 scale has gotten more popular, many collectors like me have tended to stick to the quality 1/43 scale for the simple reason that there's not enough shelf space in the house to display all 150 diecasts and numerous kits!

Re: Diecast 350GT

I haven't gotten the Fujimi kit yet, but I'm hoping Tamiya will also do a 1/24th scale of the coupe.

The rendering you've posted is interesting, if only because it makes me glad that Nissan opted to go with the fastback look, and not just another 2 box version of the 4 door sedan.
