Hot Wheels Hottest Car for the Coolest People!
Hey people of the 80 and 90’s, remember the ‘Hot Wheels’ toy cars? Hot Wheels is celebrating its 40th anniversary. To make it special Hot Wheels assigned a jeweller from Beverly Hills to make a special car. The car now costs $140,000. It is encrusted with diamonds and weighs 23 karats. This car was cast in 18 carat white gold and it is set in brilliant blue diamonds mimicking the Hot Wheels Spectra Flame blue paint.

Under the hood, the engine is adorned with additional micro-pave set in white and black diamonds. The underbelly which carries the logo has been set in white and black diamonds as well. Red rubies are the taillights. To recreate the signature red line wheels, black diamonds with red enamel have been used.

The car will be presented in a special case and is embedded with 40 white diamonds signifying each anniversary. It will be auctioned sometime in the last quarter of 2008. These are times when I wish I was born with a golden spoon that would get me this diamond car! Being Hot (Wheels) is still so Cool!

Wow! i was an avid Hot Wheels collector. I had a collection of 30 Hot Wheels. I wish i could get my hands on that car now and and it to my collection.
This blog took me to my childhood days, when we used to have competitions of these toy cars.

I though hotwheels had actually vanished. I am glad that it is still around and continuous to make interesting toy cars. I remember it because it made toy cars with doors that actually opened. I was fascinated by these cars in my younger days. I wish i could own that jewel car as my tribute to the toy company.

Wow! Hotwheels cars is still on. I have seen some of my cousins own these toy cars and some of them still retain an impressive collection. I did not know that it still exists. I know that though i may not get my hands on the jewel car, i can certainly ask my relatives visiting US to get a Hot Wheel Car collection.
