description  I bought this from a shop in Taipei, I'd been to three shops but none of them had what I was looking for. Determined not to go home empty handed I picked this from the display window. It must have been there a while, the headlamps have yellowed a bit and the tires have small flat spots. It came boxed with instructions, and a small insert box of optional build parts. I plan to fit ABC stealth mounts to clean it's appearance. It's an interesting car, but I live next to the beach, so there's little chance of it going outdoors for a drive.

Such a cool find ! And you got the original box aswell. I have one of these aswell but it is used and needs a repaint.

I like this a lot and wish Tamiya would re-re this. The Group C chassis is out there already, so it's more a matter of sourcing the body and wheels to do this again.
