Autoart 1:18 Integra Type R DC5 Mugen edition

I want one in black (Is there any?)

Buy a white one and custom paint it black...

I'm not as good with painting :P plus NHB looks nicer than CW :P

I'm going to look for it in HK..should be less than 100 bucks (PS: last time I bought my OEM Autoart JDM DC5R in HK was only 80 bucks AUD)

Definitely cheaper in HK...got my OEM DC5R from there too

[tofu]

any 2005+ models?

those tail lights looked smoked out.

[mugsee]

Apparently there is a 2005+ model however I don't know if these have been released yet. :O

This one is from autoart....the normal dc5r is from Ebbro......autoart's detail is not as good as ebbro.....

[Wlee2]

how much does it cost to buy these things ?

[air23box]

500- HKD as I remember.....sth like 450 or 480 depend which one you choose....

I had a look at the real thing in 5 different shops in HK...the price is not cheap atm...same as posted above..about $102 bucks AUD....think need to wait 1-2 months before price drop...normally buying things is like that in HK...when first came out...wait til 2-3 months...price drop

Anyways my comment on the model would be...the finish is not as good as I thought

The white paint finish seems not too good (little bit off from real championship white)...and the main thing to mention is the headlights...the quality is quite bad...I remember OEM one wasn't as bad as this...the headlights look too plastic, especially with the whitish silvery finish
I dun think I'd buy it now until the price has dropped since of the quality

But yeah..had a look at a few other models...tried to find my love 997 GT3 RS...not out yet...only got GT3 Cup car edition ones & the 996 GT3 RS
But I saw a pretty nice Ralliart Edition Evo IX (Autoart) which is much cheaper at $85 AUD...the finish is very very good...especially the mat black wheels...look sick

And I also saw a JGTC series Mugen Powered NSX Team (quite a few Mugen Powered Teams...can't remember which one it was that I saw)...but the quality of that one is much much much better than the Mugen DC5R I saw....some carbon fibre bits and pieces and a nice colour & bodykit...sick as ..and that is also cheap..only $85 AUD...I'm gonna buy it tomorrow (was in a bit of hurry to go home for dinner so didn't buy yet)

Oh...which shop and do they have many left? In Mong Kok?

People selling that one here for stupid prices...I want one for obvious reasons

Can someone look out for a S14a or a Ralliart Colt model car for me??
