Proof Americans and their cars are violent

[vamach1]

Especially those driving a Mustang.  I had to laugh at this box art from Japan.

Or in the words of Bullwinkle J. Moose, "I like violence 'cause they smell so nice!"

So, you building it? I'd like to see what comes out of the box.

I did not buy it.  ARII and Doyusha have released the same kit several times.  I have a coupe and they are curbsides with opening doors but seem slightly larger than 1/24.

That is hilarious. I Love Exciting Violent Automobile!
And I love that it's a Mustang, considering all the 'stang cars-and-coffee crash memes that have been swirling around lately.

One of these kits, may have been the Challenger, had great box art language, something to the effect that 'the large V8 motor vibrates the driver's bowels'..

Also true of their '72 Thunderbird.  If you've never seen one, beware that the kit inside doesn't look nearly as good as the box art. And the box art ain't that great...

I was excited to see this kit on ebay recently and was going to bid. Luckily I found a kit review by Chuck Most, I believe, before I bid. I passed.
