It's easy to find the same model in the English part of the website
Since it's a July issue, I'd say the picture isn't of the actual kit, probably a diecast of some sort or a very early test shot (which I doubt). I'm sure the kit will be plastic as advertised. The pic is so small it's nearly useless. If it is the prototype, it looks odd and I would hope that Fujimi offers the kit instead. I know a guy (another HHMB exile

) who owns a real Superamerica; he likes it but says it's less fun to drive than his standard 550 Maranello, partly because of the suspension and partly because of the F1 tranny. He got the Superamerica so he can be on the short list to be able to buy whatever the Enzo successor is.
Wonder if Revell will make the roof actually operate? If they are careful it could happen, even in scale. All the trim and visible mechanism for the rotating glass roof is carbon fiber; very neat detailing if you ever get to see one up close.
