Fujimi vs. Tamiya : Toyota Bb kits

I'm going to be building a Scion xB (Toyota Bb) as a replica for someone in the near future. Has anyone bought/built the Fujimi or Tamiya versions of this kit? Give me some insight into the pros/cons of each kit? I would guess the Tamiya kit is better, but you never know.

I have the Fujimi Blitz bB; I have yet to start it but it looks like a typical easy Fujimi affair.

I got both of them built.

I find Fujimi interior is alot more easy to do than Tamiya, but is just my . I hate to lay those carpet on the model. Tamiya interior floor is not flat, but holes every where. You need to lay the floor carpet that Tamiya provide on it. As for Fujimi, they didn't give any floor carpet and interior floor is flat as usual.
But if you love to do with carpet laying, go for Tamiya. Both are the same wheel suspension just like 350Z.

Thanks for the tips. So in terms of body accuracy and fit, I'm guessing they are pretty much the same?

Tonio, that Blitz Bb, it's the same body as a standard Bb, but just with Blitz decals, correct?
