Tamiya 1:12 288 GTO diecast

Still waiting in Palm Beach.

Mark, how was it delivered (US Mail, DHL, Purolator)?

 

I was looking for DHL (since others have come that way) but it was US Mail that showed up with it

 

Did you order your GTO?

 

Non, j attends d avoir le meilleur prix. j espere que je pourrais me l offrir pour noel....

 

Got mine today!

Wow

Great details

 

Just creasy! i don t see this pictures i must to be blind somewhere.....
i imagine your happiness to shoot all the group of Divas.

Exellent work Roy a tanks you for the time you took and all the preparation.

i know one thing....i hate the red of F40 kyosho!

 

Why is that? Going by what I have seen it actually seems to be a tad more accurate.

 

i think it too clear, completly out near the tamiya models.

 

But that is the more accurate red for that time period. To each there own as they say.

 

First one I've seen on the ebay...

Ohhh, but 600+ for starting bid...
Good that you have one already.

 

No doubt. I noticed they said it will be produced in limited quantities. I didn't know that - nor do I believe it.

 

i check this norning like everyday since one month and i don t saw it...thanks for post.

well nice price too: EL tarife de tarufo.

 

limited limited, not sur. i think it will be like Enzo red limited but you can find them
nobody seems interested to put the serial number for enzo?

 

Today I found a note from the mailman, I wasn't at home and can pick mine up at the post office tomorrow...and pay 78 Euro import duty and VAT, grrr. Thought they raised the lower limit for being taxed, and besides it's just a toy!

 

When tamiya says it's limited, does anyone know how many they will make?

 

Just enough that by the time I can buy one it will be out of production and twice the cost lol.
To be honest I have no idea on the production limit they set, or even the cost..
Beautiful car though.

 

no normaly nobody knows....it s a reason that we have a number in front tamiya Enzo it can gives you an idea of
quantities produced.

Building my 1:1 working scale model (308 based)
Btw I don't like how the wheels on the Tamiya sit, too much neg camber and too far tucked in.

I'm surprised the reps don't know how many they plan to make.

 

looks Top secret, funny they doesn t want to confirme limited edition like the Black Enzo...

good news Jack, the GTO will be at home promtly! i will prepare a small place in my small museum. it will be the master piece!

 

This is my first post...I am looking to get this model, first and only 1/12.
Other than the aforementioned qualities and attributes, what other details does the model have?

Movable stick shift and sun visors? Clear faced guages? Can some of the owners shed a light on this?

Many thanks!

 

about qualities: Tamiya models have all, and all that you can t imagine.
the only thing is missing, are the keys.

about this model i m must to wait 10 days more.

 

I got my 1/12 Tamiya 288GTO yesterday, it is about 260EUR (around 2800HKD), very good price.
