Re: Getting a Tamiya Sauber C9
IF in doubt just follow the kit's recommendations for Tamiya paints. If it is a reissue it will recommend a TS range for the body, probably TS-17 Gloss Aluminium. If original issue it will recommend some other bottle paint or mix.

Re: Getting a Tamiya Sauber C9
If you want to build the model anywhere near accurate, yes you do need all of them.
Keep in mind, if you keep at car modelling, most of those colors you'll only buy once.

You can never have too much paint.

The paints on the Tamiya site are the SUGGESTED paints required. You can build and paint your model any way you want too. Yes you will have to glue this one together, or you can put the glue in the box and shake it up and a perfectly built Tamiya will come out.
