SingleSeat Report post Posted November 12, 2015 I'm starting to think $70/mo is cheap for this level of ingenuity in a manufactured item. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IanMan Report post Posted November 19, 2015 Sadly... the end is near! Looking great! If only they made a Downdraft CT. I'd be the first to sign up for that. BTW, I ended up getting two Aoshima 1/24 scale Countach kits instead of building the LP400. I have one fuel injected without the side strakes and one DD same. Going to paint the DD Bianco Pearlato (or as close as I can get) and probably the Injected Red or Black. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allan-Herbie Report post Posted November 20, 2015 Further progress.. getting close. First complaint on the model as well. Everything is so well engineered. The front and rear trunks use these amazing little metal struts, but for the doors which will see the most amount of abuse, they use these flimsy little plastic hinges and a silly little metal rod. Ive only opened and closed the doors a few times, and already they are hard to keep open. Other than that, the car is starting to look amazing!
