I have many more Scalextric cars than Carrera, primarily because I've been getting all the Trans Am liveries of cars that raced in the series from '66 - '72. Scalexctric continues to find new liveries to release, and I buy just about all of them - such as all of the Cougars and Javelins.
But, now my main focus is on Can-Am cars from the same era, and even though they aren't new releases, and are expensive, Carrera's McLarens, Porsches and Lolas are attracting my money these days. Only a few retailers have any in stock and Carrera's not making any $ off cars discontinued 8 - 10 years ago. Scalextric doesn't have anything from this category that I know of.
Oddly, I'll by more Scalextrics because of new releases, but spend more $ on Carreras because many of their older Can-Am cars are now selling for much more per car.
