A Fujimi Ferrari F355 GTS model sold on EBAY for $122.50. Damn! Good thing I have 3 of the kits. I bought one 355 GTB with the underpinnings of Fujimi 348 kit (really pissed me off-must have been an early production version or i got ripped off!), so I bought a 355 GTS with the correct underpinnings. Then I found what I believe to be an extremely rare yellow version of the 355 GTB. I think I am gonna sell that, and considering I can't find one the internet and havent seen one on EBAY in over three years, I want over $100.00 for the kit. Anyone interested? Its a decent kit-lacks engine detail (but has engine detail underneath, much like Tamiya's recent offerings), a nice body and nicely detailed interior (much better than most of fujimi's kits). Can easily be coverted to GTS because of guide lines in the roof. Just let me know.

oh, by the way...I am using the first two kits to create a 355 spider. It should be a beautiful kit when finished. Right now I am still shaping the rear fenders and butresses. Can't decide whether to paint it red with tan or Ferrari pozzi blue (midnight blue) with natural. I am also going to lower it slightly and create the Fioriano edition (last 100 F355 spiders made were lowered, had challenge grills, suede steering wheels, carbon fiber interior trim, special badging, etc)

I agree, $100 bucks for a Fujimi kit is a lot of money, but good luck on finding on, especially in the U.S. Whenever they are for sale on EBAY, which is rare, I have seen them sell for $60.00 and above. I didn't get my kits cheaply either. Selling it for $100 still doesn't earn me much profit considering what i paid for them. And to boot, I had to buy them from sellers in Germany and Singapore. One of the them, because of all sorts of difficulties, took me three months to get.
