GSX still available at C4 MV.

The back is seriously MK1 toyota VIOS. hahaha.

so

How much is the complete Larry, Phil & (whose the other guy?) garage boxed set posted by prabha last time? Well the appeal is towards those NASCAR guys really. Which is why such sets appear. Such set is impossible to sell in Malaysia. USD 3499 x 3.5 = 12246.50 not including shipping yet and this thing would be big and heavy. The craziest i have seen is people paying RM1600 for a 1/8 scale Batmobile last year. Then did you see the Ultimate Buzz Lightyear at TRU lately? RM1xxx!!!! Its really collectors kaw kaw.

If bring it in here, does anyone want to collect? Damn a lot la. It should be 35 piston cup cars altogether. Here is the link to the USD 3500 boxed all rubber wheel set. Its like having a Larry's garage or something. http://www.toywiz.com/carsmotorspeedway.html

joke.

Sinclair, if the price is the same as regular ones, then its value for money!!!!

Yes the car may be very good in some areas. I think the ride and handling will be superior to most hatches. But then think again, how many would be able to gauge that fact for there are only 25 units available? Would any of them see track days for that matter? So whats the point in having all those fancy equipment only to show to the public you can own a 115K car? Well actually ther are lot of people in Malaysia that owns million dollar cars and yet they see no action. While the ones constantly spending money to upgrade their car sees lots of action legally and illegally. Yes we do have a car manufacturer. And they are comited to giving good stuff to us. (I think la, besides the Persona 416 fiasco).

backside

Yup those are the ones. There is a complete set that cost USD 3400!!!

Yes correct. But those suspensions and brakes are a killer to service. If an average joe can manage to get one, he would be shocked to find out the brake pad price. And Ohlins? How many Ohlins dealers you know in Malaysia? Hell even Koni & Tokico aftermarket is scarce and only 2 dealers around. Well the reason to compare with a Civic is, because of the price tag. In the end it not really a good comparison for the current 4 door civic. But you compare to the old EG EF civics and even DC Integra, then the NEO is not good bargain. 25 cars with unproven record on track. While many wins for the Integra and Civics on track since its heydays. And its still competative now. So you are actually buying a blinged up DD and not track aces car. So what if the ride is by lotus? Its is still not a lotus. Still not!! You approach people like Jay Leno and Bernie and tell them its only 25 in the world, see if they buy it or not, even if ti is loose change for them?

My auntie's 20 year old saga wheel covers was taken there too.

Also the regular dragon lightning mcqueen is normal paint job. The other more expensive one with catalog is limited edition. And the color is Ransburge too. So it can count as variant.

Somehow

Somewhat kind of dissapointing car. No doubt this car could do well on track. But some things are not there. The interior color is not color matched. Its like puke green. Carbon fibre effect stuff... hmmm.... leaves to be desired. And they did not include bucket seats. This is because they have to comply with the air bag settings. Now whats funny is, a lot would quote a second hand civic compared to this. Some pro neo would shoot them down for not accepting this Neo lotus. But some parts you got to agree with the general public that having a civic/integra for much less money. And most importantly its a proven track platform. This Neo isn't. And at limited 25 units only, its even harder to prove why it is desirable just for the LOTUS badge. Pretty dissapointing. They should make an true R3 NEO just like what they did with the R3 Satria.

Fangula

which

So you getting them? I remember that the rubber wheels are mostly installed on those piston cup race cars instead of the regular cars. But there are some with rubber wheels. No matter what it is hard to come by even for US standards.

ding dong

Sinclair, they do not look like diecast. The box didn't say so. The rubber tires are limited edition ones. They are not available here. I remember reading that they were only offered with certain track sets or exclusive in some toy stores. But definitely not available in Malaysia.

whack

Hell yeah!!! Just what i wanted and at lowest price possible!! Yeah Yokoza!!!! I wanted this a lot! I think this came only 1 per box or was it 2 per box? So its quite rare.
