There is this little district on Avenue Road and Bloor. The place were all the exotic cars are during summer. There are two hotels there right across each other. They have two model stores there. Im sure they have what you are looking for.

I wish I could be more exact with the location....Im sure someone can help you out. I know that people on this forum know about that place.

you can get a Mclaren F1 on Ebay...there are some maisto ones for anywhere from about $10 to $50 American...but if you want to move upmarket, try getting a UT or Minichamps version.

yes don't get maisto...they suck...get them if you think the car looks good, but if you really like the car get something else...
