Kyosho model NSX's

[tabasco]

Has anyone ever seen a blue one? Or, has anyone ever got one of these models and tried to paint it?

That's why I liked it - it is like mine

Wish the interior was Ivory though - it looks a bit of work to change it (I painted my other 1/48th NSX...)

Darn, misprint.

Speaking of which. Has anyone seen the Imola Orange NSX? I forget which company makes it. I saw it at 20/20 Autobody once, and I wanted it so bad! I came across one on eBay about a year or so back. But I lost the auction.

There is an Imola orange and a silver model by Kyosho. Took me some time to find a good quality silver. The Imola I had shipped from Hong Kong. The silver I found in South America.
I have never seen a blue or green. I have the silver, white, yellow, black, orange, red and both versions of the white.

It's PHOEN$X who wants to trade. I'm just saying he can wait a couple of months for Revell to re-release the red with black top model.

Thanks for the clarification, Ed. I was just checking out the Revell NSX at Mark Basch's shop today, and noticed (with disappointment) that it is less detailed than the Kyosho's. It lacks the carpeted interior, and the side scoupes are merely painted on whereas the Kyosho's are plastic I believe. Still, a nice piece to own, and it would be great if Revell does release it again.

My white Kyosho has an automatic shifter and a clutch pedal. This must be the latest in shifting options. Kevin

Mine's the same way, as far as I can tell without opening the box.

On the same subject, I bid and won the Revell model on eBay...next time I'll know better! I carelessly assumed the seller would charge market-rate shipping, but no--he wants $15 to ship from Santa Monica to Phoenix! It was a rather stupid assumption on my part, due to previously positive eBay transaction experiences, and the seller's relatively high positive feedback. Oh well, live and learn.

in Australia, we can only get white and red Kyosho models. shops can't (probably won't) even import the NSX other brands. also, still no 2002 NSX models released here. kinda sucks being so far down under. =)

I found a 1:43 scale 2002 NSX. It's made by Ebbro, and they come in Monza Red Pearl, Line Green Metallic, and Black. But I can't seem to find a site that sells it.

ZNSX17, Where did you get your Kyosho Imola Orange one from? eBay? Let me know, as I want to get my hands on one. Thanks.
