Conclusion
This is a great model, with good details and QC. The engine especially impresses. This reaffirms Kyosho’s great value for money. I got mine for around 75CAD, which I think is very reasonable. I expect them to reuse this mold quite a bit, probably with a few race cars, and at least a “wide wheel” version of the street car.
