I am much more concerned with the overall "look" of a car and not measuring it down to the last millimeter. I'm certain my ultra builtup GT40 has many glaring errors, if you measured it with a ruler, but thats not why I model a specific car. It's the essense of the car that matters.

Hi Mick,

once more what I alredy said: A kit with many etched and resin parts, long awaited by lots of modelers.
Whats not satisfying to ME is the balance between left and right side.
Other things that I mentioned are depending of the modeler of the mastermodel: One sees curves and details in a different way than another.

What I mentioned is, what I will change if I (have the time and the mood to) build this kit, than in MY opinion the model comes closer to the original car.

Everybody has the liberty to correct these things I mentioned, only few of them or some more or just build it out of the box

Well ED 59, you can be sure, if I´ll be in your area, I´ll be there

I just got it!
And it is really nice. much over my expectations. Perfect p/e parts, nice decals and good resin parts. So after my last renaissance kit (360 Modena transkit) it is really good and the quality is much better.

Cobra colors has the correct paint for it.

Ive just ordered the kit from Strada and i look forward to it, flawed or not. I love this car and its the only kit availiable for 1/24 so i can live with the oversights. Also i got the kit for $125 at Strada and in my mind this is not a bad price for a full resin kit in 1/24. Im also getting the SP Murcie R-GT trans-kit and the Quik Skins Audi A4 full kit. Ill let you know what i think when they arrive.
