Yeah, I think it looks like they nailed the look. Lovely stance and pretty much perfect curved profile on the rubber for a slight stretched look. Yum.

I already have the base model Z, so I know its a nice model. The engine on this looks like shit though. It looks like a compiled kit with primer.

yeah screw the limited edition, I'm working on the engine. If I can do it without taking the model apart, great... if not, it's coming apart.

It needs to come apart for that, for sure. Its fairly easy, just some screws underneath and lift away the chassis. Mind the steering column. The engine is a tray, like this on the regular Z432:

Got this one today!

One of my "holy grails". 1/18 BBR Laferrari Geneva 2013 spec. I´ve been looking for one about a year. But the prices have been crazy.
I actually considered paying close to EUR 600 for one a while back. So when this surfaced at EUR 100 under sticker I did´nt hesitate a second.

Super happy with it. Easily one of the best models I´ve ever seen. Eveything is so crisp and clean. Just...Perfect!

Love the Wangan Z and I'll get one myself. I had to toil through the anime to get to the end. Mind uploading some real shots of the car you have?

My first GT-Spirit, 964 Speedster.

Kraftig or anyone else, it came missing the passenger side indicator. Do you have a form of contact for GTS where I may ask for a spare?
