Tamiya BMW ///M635 CSi

Nice kit, oversimplified in places, and few incorrect areas, but looks very nice when built. Great fit throughout, not a problem during assembly. Old Tamiya FTW! Enjoy.

Re: Tamiya BMW ///M635 CSi

Sweet looking M6! And aggressive looking too! I love E24 chassis! Nice engine detail too, very cleanly done.

I saw one on the road with a license plate that reads "TWICE M3" which makes sense.

I wasn't actually too eager to see this one cutting in front of me since I was driving something "half of M6"!!!

I definitely second that! The most beautiful BMW ever built in 1:1. You sure did it justice with your scale model. Absolutely stunning with perfect paint, trim and details. Good choice of wheels, too. The only thing that doesn't fit the picture is the oversized antenna base. That thing would be ~60 mm in diameter, judging by the pictures. In reality that would hold a full size military antenna and still look huge...

Cheers

Well, its a tad oversized, but its not small on a real car too, I'd say good 40-50mm?

It looks perfectly fine on the model in real life.

Re: Tamiya BMW ///M635 CSi

another one I've been wanting to build except I never decided which kit to get having never seen any of them built or in detail.
this one looks like proper old school tamiya.
very nice.
