Ouch....that's a lot of $$$ to spend but from the pics you posted on the kit on another thread...it looks like it's worth it (if you can afford it). Make sure you start a progress thread on this build.

The more I see, the more I want!
Could you post a picture of the 1:8 scale wheels next to some 1:24 ones?

$1,400!!!!!!!!!!
Why? For a model, sorry but that's a waste of money in my opinion. But if you are crazy enough to spend that much then go ahead. |
