Actually I've been eyeballing this one myself. Mostly for the inclusion of a left-hand-drive dashboard.

Anyhow, I cannot wrap my head around how it would be able to go fast with wheels that are mounted as off-center as those are. The inherent imbalance would make it a feat to go any faster than walking pace!

You know the driver is laughing his butt off for the first two miles!

I too have been looking out for this kit, should make a nice shelf model.

those are kind of a unique way for lowering the car. I probably wrote 100 words just on that subject when hit the "post" button and POOF it was all gone. darn Pulitzer prize winning stuff too.

I have this kit too. Sadly, they didn't change the interior or include a roll cage. Car and Driver had a nice article on the real car back in the day. I had initially thought about doing a detailed model by combining this with a Tamiya RX-7. It would be a ton of work. The car had quite a few modifications.
