Monogram made the Turbo Esprit and is a very nice kit, but no V8

Ya, I've got that build slated for later this year. It has HORRIFIC fit issues!!  -love the car, but not looking forward to the build at all.

it's impossible to get the body on the chassis.  But I bought that kit again. It's in my stash.

Even the engine/suspension is a nightmare!!  the last one I built I made into a one piece body, and separated the dash from the body. it was a lot of work, but worth it.

Good to hear the Fujimi is all new, not that the Nichimo was bad.  Would love to have a complete driveline though.

Thanks guys. Looking forward to starting on the street version. Probably wont be built as Bond's car though, don't need two white Esprit's!

Thanks again everyone for the comments. I'm mainly a sci-fi guy but dabble with cars now and then. Those perfect glossy paint jobs just kill me! Yu dot need that with sci-fi, lol...
