So does any of the toy car brands (Maisto, Burago or Hotwheels) has models of the movie cars? Just wondering.

That's a Weird question.
While they cannot directly use the cars from the movie, color scheme and paint wise, I'm sure Hotwheels and any of the others have a Mustang, and will probably make a Camaro at some point, whether they resemble the movie cars in paint scheme, would be doubtful as that belongs to Hasbro, and Dreamnworks Pictures.

Models - Do you mean like Revell type model cars or do you just mean Hot Wheels?
Hotwheels has had a Camaro Concept out for more then a year, I got it at Kroger for like 1.99 when it came out cuz I love the Camaro. Repaint it yellow.
Ertl/AMT makes a Concept Camaro model car, 1/24 scale, that was released back in November. Costs about 10 to 15 bucks at Walmarts, Hobby Lobby, Meijer.
As for the others, I haven't seen any hardtop Solstice models or hot wheels yet. It's hard to find convertibles even, but someone does make a diecast Solstice convertible, but it's curves and body panels are pretty flat and boring. Someone might make a Saleen 281 kit, but you'd probably have to get it as Revell's 2005 Mustang and do a lot of the work yourself. Hot Wheels does have a Mustang I believe. There are standard H2 Hummer kits and hot wheels out there, but you'd have to customize them. And while Revell has a Chevy Silverado, I don't know of anyone that makes a Topkick/Kodiak. Haven't seen a Peterbilt 379 semi either.

I saw a Maisto Pontiac Solstice. Exactly like the Movie Jazz. Scale 1:24.
Interior painting not so good. Otherwise, i would have bought it.
a little less than $10.
