Still can't believe I got my hands on a Kyosho 1:18 Countach LP5000S QV, a true unicorn.

how long have you had that bugatti? i've been avoiding it because of rumors that the polished parts require regular maintenance or else the finish goes bad, but i don't actually know anyone who has one that can confirm

hm. i'm not happy with the clear bits like the lights and glass... ie. no lens definition or defogger lines.

i tried to preorder both spoon versions through dayboxtoys but i could only get one of them as the other one sold out quickly. there is a store in malaysia that claims to having an allocation but they want twice the original price

is this final or preproduction?

I had it for less then a week so the polished parts still look new, if it starts to go bad after a few months I'll let you know.

a friend is looking for a good used 1/18 na1 nsx from autoart.

he wants a standard car, not a type-r. any color is fine, as long as it comes with a box.

pls. let me know if you have one for sale or know someone who is selling. thx

Not "used" but last time I looked, there were some really cheap auctions on eBay for the police version, would just have to strip the light bar off the roof basically... And if he's doing a repaint the scheme doesn't matter.

Cheapest price I've seen online for the silver/black ones is this one: http://www.amazon.ca/gp/aw/d/B004XYI...18+autoart+nsx
