Review: Not quite what I expected - The body of the car seems longer than normal & the engine is tiny it's much thinner, elongated than a typical 1/24 - 1/25 kit . And the plastic is reminiscent of a much older kit , it's kinda brittle but some what flexable it's like they mixed the old & new plastic's together . Overall it a very fine kit with crisp lines excellent fitting parts but the tire's seem to be wrong for the size of the car. And the crazy optional roof looks good but looks like it was stolen off a pirranah kit , it is weird , Over all it looks like a shrunk down MG combined with a Viper, the metal velocity stacks are a nice touch though, I'm saving mine for another kit, it's a really good kit especially for the extra parts. Funky '60's designs,, but a really kool kit I'll enjoy. 😊
