jaymcminn Posted August 23, 2013 Posted August 23, 2013 Yup. Pre-ordered. I'm fairly (pleasantly) surprised at the price point, given what Tamiya's been charging for the Lexus LF-A and Aston DBS kits. I would have thought $70-80. That's money I can spend on CF decals!

The good price has more to do with the exchange rate that anything else. I just hope this rate holds. Makes Japanese goods very desirable.
niteowl7710 Posted August 23, 2013 Posted August 23, 2013 Yup. Pre-ordered. I'm fairly (pleasantly) surprised at the price point, given what Tamiya's been charging for the Lexus LF-A and Aston DBS kits. I would have thought $70-80. That's money I can spend on CF decals! The LFA was only $70-80 stateside, I bought mine from HLJ right after it came out for less than $50 shipped. With the exchange rate as Peter mentions the kit is actually priced at $40.43 today.
Exotics_Builder Posted August 23, 2013 Posted August 23, 2013 From HLJ email annoncement: "An all-new kit of the all-new Ferrari LaFerrari, from Tamiya! This stunning kit of the stunning LaFerrari features full detail inside and out, with detailed 6262cc V12 engine (with HY-KERS motor system), transmission, interior, and suspension, plus scissor doors and a rear cowl that can be positioned open or closed even after assembly to show off all the detail within. "
Exotics_Builder Posted September 14, 2013 Posted September 14, 2013 Let the aftermarket makers begin!!!!

niteowl7710 Posted September 19, 2013 Posted September 19, 2013 Is the pe included or an extra??? joe Right now there's no separate listing for a P/E set from Tamiya. Most of the high-end "Black Box" releases have had some form of P/E in them recently, although the picture would seem to offer a release date and price for it that's not in the kit. Right now IF it's separate with the exchange rate and the price show in the pic the P/E would be about $11.00.
Ghostmech Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 Tamiya is also doing a 1:6 scale 2013 Harley Davidson Fat Boy According to the HLJ video, there will be a separate accessory set for the Harley but its not one the website yet. Along with the LaFerrari, is anyone else thinking about ordering one of those Harleys too?
Ghostmech Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 Yup. Both on preorder here. I with ya Chuck, I definitely want to, but I keep thinking I should wait until they get the accessory sets posted for both the Harley and LaFerrari too..... to save on shipping.
