BVC500

Chris Harris on his YouTube channel drives the F80 during a Ferrari promotional event and wears a Tamiya T-shirt. Coincidence or worst kept secret that Tamiya will release the F80?

Thanks for bringing this aftermarket company to my attention. The products look great!

Great color choice for the SEC. Classy and elegant. Nice build! Agree that this grille is tough to paint or foil, having built one myself.

It would be nice if Tamiya did more classics, like Ferraris or a 300SL roadster companion to their Gullwing. They used to be better about this.

Thanks!

Beautiful. Is that the standard ride height from the Tamiya kit?

Should turn this into a Nuremberg 2025 thread. Tamiya announced a BMW license. Wonder what kits they have in store. https://tamiyablog.com/2025/01/announcement-that-bmw-group-models-will-be-offered-again-from-tamiya/

I'm still anxiously awaiting a Roma Spider and Rolls Royce Spectre, both having been pictured before.

Thanks for sharing!

I figured, but let the aftermarket provide a fix I suppose. I'm fine building it as a GTA with a big wing. I remember the last time I saw something wrong...the rear headrests of the Audi RS6 are from the base version and they didn't mold the intricate stitched seat centers, both of which were corrected on the RS7.

There’s a few errors, which hopefully they’ll correct before release. There were two versions, the GTA, a more road-focused with comfort front sport seat, full back seat, and small flip spoiler, and a lighter GTAm, which removed the back seat and rear door panels, and added a roll bar and big exterior wing. The kit has the big exterior wing and a roll bar of the GTAm, but they forget to eliminate the rear seats, door panels, and include the correct front GTAm race seats. It can easily be built as a GTA with a big wing, not a GTAm.

Great work! Love the color combo.

I usually don't visit this sub forum, but I'm glad I did because I saw this...love it!

Beautiful work and great color combo!

Pretty clear from my original post that I wanted the mirror the most… No noticeable difference. Just look at the pics in the link and decide for yourself.
