The Scale Model Thread

@Yogi, looks nice.

Anyways, Some DIY tryouts on the M3, and the 7 Series is kinda Finished. The little it of detailing on the Headlights and Grille has really helped.

Ignore the fact that the spoiler is on Double tape. Its on as a Test Fit right now. And forgive the picture quality

Cyrus ! The 7 looks bespoke after the re-do ! Wish it has better rims. Why don't you get the M wheels back and paint em black too ?

The M3 too is good. The spoiler gives it a GTS effect. To complete the effect, paint it in Orange.

I got this AMAZING birthday gift from my Mom and Dad, and I'm absolutely smitten by it.

An original 1:18 scale model of a BMW M3 coupé, in Interlagos Blue!

The thing cost a bomb since they picked it up from Bird Automotive in Gurgaon. The detailing is awesome, and it's a pleasure just to keep looking and marvelling at it.

I've got a 1:18 Maisto-Mercedes Benz SLK too, I'll post the photographs soon.

Man thats one lovely E92 M3, nice color too. Kyosho quality and finishing is to die for. And yes it must be costed your mom-dad a bomb, as this one is retailed at 5250 INR.

Cyrus43 · 19th March 2010, 17:47

No. It doesnt. It retails at around 6500 INR. At least those are the Kyosho prices for India.

IIRC at auto expo there were number of models on dislpay with their corresponding prices and this is what i can recollect for M3, i could be wrong though.

Cyrus43 · 19th March 2010, 18:06

Those must be specially for the Expo. Otherwise Kyoshos are all 6.6K plus approx.

BANDHAV · 19th March 2010, 19:33

^^I am not sure about this, if i am not wrong Kyosho BMWs can still be picked at lower prices than the normal market price from BMW outlets.
