That looks awesome. Great work on a very cool car. I have done a couple Carrera GT's (silver and red, nothing as cool as this one) and found the paint pretty aggreable to work with and that it finishes out perfectly with ultra fina.

Nice job.

What did you think about the stupid clutch in the car? You could pull out your hair just trying to move the car over a speed bump... If you rev it above 1800, it cuts the power out (to save the 10k clutch), so you have ease the cluth to the point of the pressure plate, at which point the engine automatically revs and you pull away like a granny.

That and the funky placement of the shifter is kind of wierd. Luckily I was able to put a couple miles on the silver one, and once under way the car is awesome, and what an amazing sound!!!
