krishna.iskandana Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 (edited) Hello Guys, This is an old monogram kit, a Lotus Esprit Turbo, I think it's quite rare to be found these days. The color is metallic black from tamiya and the interior color is broken white, also from tamiya. Let me know what you think and thanks for looking Kind Regards Krishna Iskandana Edited September 23, 2011 by Romell R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CorvairJim Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 That's one sharp looking Esprit! I never think of these cars in black, but it really looks good on it, especially contrasted with the white interior. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

surfjunke Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Nice build of a really cool car! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Johnston Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 That's a great looking model of a really cool car. The best part about it is that I know its a touch build...it does not just fall together and ours looks like it did. The ride height is perfect and I also know that had to take some work. Very nice... I came inches from buying a yellow 84 Esprit back in the early 90s...My uncle (who had a new one) talked me out of it, which was probably a good thing (one repair bill would have given me bad regrets). Instead I bought a 1991 MR2 and I drive it 9 years Very nice Build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
