Hi guys! I finally got better pictures of this one. The kit is by Revell of Germany. Paint is Plasti-Kote auto lacquer; wheels are 20" Hoppin' Hydros Belaggios. This kit was a test of my modelling skills because it gave me fits and took me a year on and off to finish it!!

Looks pretty good to see a finished one Antonio. I've got one and had some fitment problems with the rear tailights not meeting up at the very acute corner of the rear quarter panel. I have to fill it in and rescribe. Did you encounter the same thing? Looks sexxxy!!!!:D Oh the panel lines on mine were really wide too.

The whole car was a fitment problem!! But the tailights weren't a problem for me. If you look closely at the grille, it doesn't fit flush like it should and the interior was warped beyond warped so there wont be any inside shots:( Overall, I'm still glad I finished it.

I've one S600 myself, waiting to be build. Did it come together easily, any particular difficulties?

You've certainly done a fantastic job on this one!! Also the background for the pictures is very cool!

Guido There might be some warpage of the interior bottom! Mine was and the interior sits slightly crooked in the car. Walter(wkma7six) also warns of the tailight fitment; make the front headlights and grill section is secure before the chassis is attached!! My grill is pushed ever so slightly but enough for me to notice:( Overall, a good kit can be made from it but I just wanted to finish it before I smashed it or threw it from a moving car on the freeway! Hope yours turns out better than mine did!
