You never actually own a Lexus. You merely look after it for the next generation.

| description | This is actually a DF-03RA, but this is not about the chassis, besides I will probably change it eventually, cuss it’s really noisy. I removed some of the drive train, to make it RWD. It handles surprisingly well with a LOSI Xelorin 6,5T
I recently sold my trusty 1:1 Volvo 940, and got my hands on a 1:1 Lexus IS200. I have been looking for a nice one for almost a year, and I bought the Tamiya IS200 body even further back. But not knowing what color my 1:1 would be, I had to wait with the model.
I love them both
I used yokomo light buckets, they kind of fit, but a little bit small. I’m not a very big fan of crome rims, but I love the deep dish look. I need to make some kind of exhaust pipe...

Hmm, I can’t seem to find the part number, but there are a couple of sets available on eBay atm. Just search for ” Yokomo Light Buckets Altezza” looks like they are discontinued, and the price is ok so you best get a set at once
Aside from the body mounts, I really thought you were posting the real car in the first photos. I like the depth you have brought to the body. I have this kit, not posted it as I don't like shooting photos of boxes. Please share part numbers of the buckets as I want to use them too.
Tanks guys. I’m glad you like it
twisty: I think ABC Hobby makes some universal invisible body mounts, but this is a 10 year old shell and it was pre-cut…
Henk4Focus: I plan on putting TTE (Toyota’s in-house tuner) lowering springs and different wheels, 17 or 18” on the 1:1.
Very nice street car, love it.
That is a great looking shell,but 'come on Tamiya,please give us reverse body mounts'
They are both very nice, congrats
Cracking car, if it wasn't for the body posts it would easily be mistaken for a 1:1. Great photo locations too.
Now, to pimp the real one to match the 1:10. Real cool looking car.
looks great.
Hey, cool cars!
Looks awesome mate
