I can tell you one of the reasons people are not posting is this server is about enough to drive people crazy with the amount of busy server messages. It is very aggravating to type a somewhat long post only to have this server busy out on you. I hope something can be done about this soon.

1.) Fave Car
Whoa that's a tough one...most likely R34 VSpec, Signal Auto Sil1580, FD3S RX-7, Nissan Cefiro
2.) Have you built your fave car?
one of them i have, the RX-7, the Cefiro will hopefully come in the mail in the next few days, the 1580 is a project i'll be trying sometime in the future, and i'll most likely be buying an R34 kit at some point too.
3.)replica of the car you want or have?
they don't make a model of the car i have, and out of the cars that are options for me to buy in the spring, i've built (or am building) 2 of them, Nissan S13 and S14
4.)Best products?
Tamiya and Aoshima has some damn good stuff too
5.)Fave model that you have built?
so far it's the C-West, but that may change.

Re: Boring Forum!!!

1. What is your favorite car?
1996 Dodge Viper GTS

2. Have you built the model of your favorite car?
A couple of years ago I did, I smashed it though. Will most likely get another one this week sometime.

3. Have you built a replica of the car you want, or have?
No credit card means I havn't been able to order all the Lowrider parts I need to make one. Plus no company makes a fully detailed 1/12 64 Impala 4 door.

4. What brand do you think is the best company overall?
Revell, nearly no other companies offer you all the choices they do in a kit, plus not all of them allow you to build the engine. Also alot of the other companies havn't been around as long as they have, or they don't make fully detailed models (opening hoods,doors etc).

5. What is your favorite model car that you have built?
My 1964 Impala Lowrider, I have a spare hydro chassis for it now. So now I can get some three wheel action.

This's one of the most active forum I know of. That's why we get so many busy messages, don't we? (Of course, there are just too many forums on this server though.)
And I just posted my Enzo update like a day or two ago.

Re: Boring Forum!!!

1. What is your favorite car?
Ford Gt40 1969 and modern version.

2. Have you built the model of ur favorite car?
I don't think Fujiimi's kit(s) are accurate enough, so i don't think i will build a GT40 unless i am confident of my skills to scratchbuild all those lacking parts.

3. Have you built a replica of the car u want, or have??
I most probably won't build a replica, i would rather be creative and make my own versions.

4. What brand of products do u think is the best company overall?
Tamiya.

5. What is ur favorite model car that u have built (Post PICS)
I am building it now, Tamiya Testarossa. Sorry no pics, i don't have digital camera.

Favourite car
Pretty much any Le Mans car, JGTC car (or Lotus, obviously)

Have I built it
Well, I've started!

Built a replica of the car I have
I'm planning an Impreza modified to match the one I had, I built the MR2 I had before that, but nobody makes a 1:24 Elise model so I can't do the one I have now!

Best products
AMT... sorry I meant Tamiya of course

Favourite I have built
My Loctite Skyline (pics elsewhere) although the 1995 JGTC Supra I'm doing at the moment may eclipse it. Pics when done!



The main reason I'm not posting much at the moment is that the crappy British weather is making it hard to get anything primed so progress is very slow and sporradic.
