Hot Wheels Wiki

I disagree that it should be deleted.  Maybe there's no "reason" for it, but it provides an interesting insight.

-Many people are unaware that Australia even has an automotive industry.  I'm American, and most people I talk to have never heard of Holden (even some G8 and GTO owners, who are completely unaware of what their cars really are).  I didn't know about Holden until I visited the country in 2006, and I more or less assumed that the Fords they had there were pretty much the same as the ones we have here.  If someone can learn something about another culture through Hot Wheels Wikia, isn't this page worthwhile?

-They are an oddity within the Hot Wheels brand.  You can count the number of casts on one hand, making for an interesting bit of trivia.

-I recently found out that Hot Wheels is sold in Australia.  That might not seem noteworthy on the face of it, but think about it: this is a country with a long and storied history of automotive manufacturing, and it's barely a blip on the radar as far as this brand is concerned.  For the Australian Hot Wheels fan, it must be kind of frustrating. This page is a way for them to know that they're not entirely unrepresented.

How is the above different for other countries? Hot Wheels are sole in the Netherlands. We haven't had a Vencer or Spyker or Savage Rivale.
-Well, then maybe we'd make a page for Nederlander cars, wouldn't we?  I'm not talking about a country that DOESN'T have any of its cars available as Hot Wheels models, I'm talking about one that does.  At any rate, if you think that a page for the Netherlands should exist, go nuts.  There may not be any Spykers or Vencers, but considering how many foreign cars that have been built in the Netherlands over the years, I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if a few of them have been made into Hot Wheels cars.
