Phildaupho Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 One of all time favorite cars and you have done a superb job building and presenting a model of it. I had a red 1980 Canadian version GTI which had the looks but not the performance up grades of European versions but still a great car.

bismarck Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 (edited) I had one of the earlier ones like that too. Used to race my brother in his escort. No contest, I smoked him every time!! One of the best cars I owned. beautiful build!!! Edited January 26, 2015 by bismarck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peekay Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Wow, hervorragend! One of the most realistic models I've ever seen on this site - and that takes real skills on a lot of levels. Outstanding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragline Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 Were it not for that wavy kit glass that first pic could be the real thing. Well done on the finishes, in particular the wheels. They look utterly realistic. Well done Sir. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MsDano85gt Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 not the exact same car, newer of course but i like the ad campaign of "Dust Thy Neighbor" found this to be one cool magazine ad though everyone here would like this fits this post for the most part Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Pugh Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Ok, I have to admit...I generally do not click on anything when the subject matter doesn't interest me. When I saw that this had grown to three pages, I looked just out of curiosity. Boy, am I glad I did! What an INCREDIBLE model you've built! The model itself and your photography skills are amazing! It looks real!! Nice job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
