Tamiya 1/24 Nissan Silvia K's (S13)

Finally had the time to take some nice pictures of the Silvia. Simple kit, but looks real good on the shelf. Built completely box stock, painted Nissan Blueish Silver w/gray interior. Testament to excellent Tamiya models that  can be built to look great out of the box.

That is very, very nice. Sadly we never got the 2-door nor the fixed-light front end here, but they look great and your build captures the clean look of the 1:1 very nicely. It could easily be one of those reference shots in the back of a JDM brochure.

Along with things like the LS400, Honda NSX and Skyline GT-R they're one of those cars that defines a real turning point in what the Japanese were making.

Thank you, much appreciated.

Yup, I also thing US version was watered down, but what can you do? That was a very cool era in Japanese car history, and a lot of good cars came out of it.
