I red all the above... everybody is right. Now, it's depends on how rich you are, how many time you have to make everythnig fit, what car you want and what will be displayed.
I begin by the car I want... then check my budget and the way it'll be displayed. The time to build it is the last factor...
In my opinion... Tamiya is a great race car builder... JTCC, GTR, Rally, Leman... most of them have engines and great one by the way (as good as Revell but with less little thing). Ideal for race diorama with open hood or live scene. Yes they are a pain when you play with suspension... but I think the reason is they make it at a good riding height at first. Simply near perfection but yet pricy.
Revell is a great Nascar builder and a motor perfectionnist... if you have plenty of time to work on a model and if it'll be display with the open hood, that's a good choice but maybe you'll have to work on the suspension.
AMT's are the worst of them all. But then again, when the only company who does what I want is them... don't have much choice. But prepare sanding block, cutters, scalpel, putty and a lot of patience. Think of the riding height at first cuz you'll need to drop them so they don't look like a Bigfoot.
Never try FUJIMI, AOSHIMA....
