Re: Question about Fujimi Ferrari 288 GTO

i have 2 fujimi 288 GTO, the first bought for about 20 dollars in Germany,... the second bought on ebay for 5 Euro that means about 4 dollars!!!!!!!!!!!
More, it happened that the seller had to come to my city (Florence, Italy), so i had not to pay any shpping cost or bank charges for the payment!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And the kit is untouched inside.....
This is the auction i am talking about:

http://cgi.ebay.it/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?...category=38666

I have also 2 Italeri kits of this car (one is built and one is going to be completed using the Pioneer decals from a Bburago diecast kit) and i can tell that this is a very nice model although you must pay attention to some fitting problems first of all the wheels that have to be corrected to fit properly inside the wheel arches. I have also changed the tires with Fujimi P7 wide&wider, and lowered the body by sanding the whole clear part that simulate the glasses. For sure Fujimi is much more detailed with also the front hood openable and has correct diameter wheels, but what a hard work on it!
