Personal choices

My favorite Tamiya kit of all time was building the last-generation Mercedes 600SEC.

I love the JGTC Skylines from Tamiya... I'm hoping the Ferrari Enzo will raise the stakes.

I think the Tamiya Supra would probably win an award for best car kit ever if there was one

Yah, I raise my hand for Supra as well!

supratuner it isn't that hard to put lights on your car, I think the hardest thing is to find the right size of a LEDs! I was told by a couple of my friends that are taking an electricity class that a 220ohms resistor will work best! As for batteries, it's either internal of external.

Going by the amount that have been built just at AF i'd have to say the Revell ITR, then the Skylines and WRX's

My personal favorite would have to be Tamiya DTM car's

Thumbs up My favorite kit...

is the AMT 1962 Bel-Air kit because I've built several and experienced no problems and because it's the kit that got me back into modelling after being away for 8 years!!!Second would be the Tamiya Fairlady 300-ZX because that was my first Tamiya kit and it went together so easily that it was almost scary!
