I'd love to believe you but right now their website isn't working

That's a great news! Can't wait to get this kit, this car is so hot.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOW
Finally, was getting worried I'd had to use the diecast version for my
SLR GT1 project

Thank You God!!!!!!!!

[TireGaint]

Thanks so much.....we need a high detail SLR!!! YEAH! Enzo Ferrari - Carrera GT and SLR.....AWESOME!!

[Rtuned]

Finally the last 'king' had to be release...

[mickbench]

Yesss...!!!!!!!

About time.. If it's the same as the Enzo, or GT then happy happy days. If not, then sod it, die cast chassis or not, its enough. That car is a MUST for me. Thank you Tamiya. After months of me slagging them off, they do and do this.. What great news.

At first I thought this was a joke, but it can't be... Woohoo..

Now we wait for the Zonda and the Koenigsegg.

[mickbench]

Just think of all the P/E and SMS detail sets that'll follow this... If this is like the Enzo or GT, then this is really good news, and will restore faith in plastic models.

When even I was thinking Plastic was dead, it might not be. I will look forward to seeing what Tamiya are planning, it's bound to be a little more simplified, as I feel Tamiya are trying to get a new appeal to model buidling, so simple kits are the order of the day for Tamiya, but even so, the aftermarket guys will pick this up, and lap it up.

I can't wait...!! I'm ordering two or three of this kit.

Hey, give them a chance. Do you think Tamiya has listerned to all the complaints being made lately. I mean, there is no way Tamiya PR hasn't seen the threads being posted lately, and I bet their email boxes have had a few "what are you doing" emails..

People power wins.. LOL

A big "yeah, right...not in a million years" for Tamiya doing them

Probably get them as 8 million dollar assembled resin kits from Fujimi

Yeah, I want a Koenigsegg but the Zonda is just too fugly for me to ever appreciate.

Tamiya does need to get off their lazy *** and do the McLaren F1. Talk about a gaping hole in the supercar kingdom.

About time. Now all they need to do, is get going on the 06' WRC and JGTC Suby kits.
