Gentlemen,

Here ya go. 3 easy steps to really having fun at any car show.

1. Show up 30 minutes late when a huge crowd is already there in a brand new 2017 Ford GT. The reaction from the assembled mass of auto enthusiasts is akin to Kim Kardashian walking naked thru a crowded shopping mall.

2. Let young boys & girls sit in the drivers seat. They love it and both they and their parents are most appreciative.

3. Number three gets a big reaction. Give the little guy or girl a super cool Hot Wheels exact duplicate of the Ford GT they just sat in. Little boys especially go crazy over these little GT's. Where else can you hand out so much happiness for about 5 bucks?

Great fun! Cheers.

Chip

You're a great sport Chip! I think you've bought HotWheel's entire inventory of yellow GTs!

Very nice Chip.
Is there place to buy hot wheels in bulk and maybe volume discount?
