Amazing body, average chassis
What you really get is an amazing body, and a pretty okay kit. I put the kit just a level above a TTO2, a little more modern but a lot of plastic and a lot of Phillips screws. being brushed and having low gearing it is not a fast car, but considering how nice the body is I don't want to drive this fast anyway...considering bodies are over $50 you're essentially paying 40 bucks for a basic chassis. If you have experience building kits, this is fairly simple but fiddly when it comes to screws, annoying that the diffs are already built, all dogbones, and the setup is way off for toe and camber. Oh, and I also had to clip a ring out of the front shocks to get the dog bones level.All said, it is a beautiful car and will mostly be a shelf queen. If you like building/painting bodies this is a good bargain buy.

This kit is definitely intimidating
This kit is definitely intimidating. you literarily have to build the entire car from the ground up. I have only started on it which is why I am only giving 4 stars. I will update the review as soon as i get it completely built.
