Alan R Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 That is a really pretty little car. I have been eyeing this one up on Hiroboy for some months. However, I think that if I buy any more kits, the wife will kill me... I will just have to enjoy this one vicariously. Pulling up a seat to watch. Cheers, Alan. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
infofrog Posted March 5, 2017 Author Share Posted March 5, 2017 Alan I understand . One thing about this kit is the price . Also its a super nice Revell kit . Highly recommend this one . Revell did a great job I have the front end almost finished . Enjoy Rick 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flipper Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 Looking good mate. I've swig here's wither to buy this kit for a while, so I'll be watching your build closely.

The aftermarket wheel , I seen look very nice . I use to buy a lot aftermarket parts , but stop when it got out of control . The parts were costing me 3 time or more than the model itself . But for this kit being cheap , I would upgrade the wheels . I really think Revell did a great job of this kit . Even for the price . Can't be beat Rick 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flipper Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 I know what you mean, with my current M3 build I've easily spent 3 times more money on aftermarket parts than the original kit cost me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
