here's some good + bad

GOOD:
- full engine + underbody
- metal exhaust tip
- choices of rims, bumpers, seats + stuff
- interior seems to be better than fujimi's

i don't have the best painting skills... but you can kind of compare
- side panels have details
- hood + front bump shape looks more accurate?

BAD:
- badly simplified headlights + rear lights
(the rear lights are just 2 clear red plastic over a chrome plate)
(which means u have to do some surgery to have backup lights)
- solidly molded grills... (both the one with emblem and the lower one)
- i can't get the body to fit on to the chassis nicely... maybe my problem?
- wheels (the rubber) are shiny....
- wipers are molded on to the body....
- exhaust tip looks a little oversized
- front wheels cannot steer (solid metal axle)
- side miirrors are mounted to high OOB... but is easy to fix

i haven't finished it yet... so i can't comment on the windows + stuff
but... revell is a lot cheaper... and it has an engine...
