REVIEW: Pontiac Trans AM Smokey and the Bandit

Post by e36ace » Wed Jul 08, 2020 1:32 pm

Hi.
I present a short review of Pontiac Trans Am from GreenLight.
We receive the model in a nice cardboard box and in a foam protection box.
The overall appearance is satisfactory, however, when looking closer you can see many errors. The varnish on the car is not properly corrected, the decorative stripes are poorly painted in several places, the rear window has strange flaws, the door handles are skewed painted. Still it is no better to stick the license plate crookedly, no windshield wipers. The bonnet and boot does not open, the wheels are not steerable.
As you can read, I see more cons in the presented car than the positives.
On the plus side lamps that are nicely cast, carpets inside, nice rims. Instead of photos I paste a link to yt, I hope it is not prohibited here.

You cannot expect mirales from Greenlight! But some issues are unforgiveable.

Right, but Solido is half the price and better quality
