Very nice! The headlights look amazingly realistic.

I would pick the AMT because of the body style (Sport Coupe, no A-pillar), so this is just personal preference. I also recommend buying the photo etch detail set from Model Car Garage in case the kit doesn´t include photo etch parts. I have built the so called Custom Culture Series version and have the AMT/Ertl Pro Shop version in the stash. Both do have photo etch parts included. Whatever you choose the result will be a fifties icon!

Thank you !

Had to try the new C8 in the snowy winter roads. Exterior painted in the original Riptide Blue metallic. Tamiya TS-40 Black Metallic (which is very close to the original Carbon flash metallic) was used in the exterior black parts, wheels etc. Everything clear coated with Tamiya LP-9. Didn´t bother painting the tail lights and some other small bits. Everything went together smoothly in the new Revell kit although margins were quite small.

Excellent job.

As previous members have said, absolutely great micro-engineering! Have you by any chance seen the real thing in the BMW museum in Munich? I had an opportunity to visit the museum last summer and as I was following your thread in another forum I of course had this in mind when visiting.

Congrats ja Onnittelut?

Hi, is that a diorama or real building on the background? Great car, great model and also great photos.

Hi Joe, I'd like to ask how you managed to make the dashboard so great, meaning the chrome rings around meters etc? Thanks!
