If your wallet is too thick to fit the pocket, then go for it!
I think it will drop down in price as soon as HL or Tamiya releases their own kit.
And this ''Ferrari'' will cost 500 bucks...
That fact that there is no Elefant produced at the moment is driving the price up.


I found you a $500.00 Ferrari Enzo comrade: http://cgi.ebay.com/TAMIYA-1-12-Enzo...item35a42eaaaa

Rare, genuine object, real deal, those words tell whole story about this model.

This is the "Holy Grail" of rc tank kits and has been explained before to the new guys in that term.

The rare factory assembled 1/16 RTR Tamiya RC Tanks quickly sell out and cost over $3000.00. Plus there are several larger scale model tank kits that run into the 10's of thousand of dollars and more.

For the serious Armor collector this is a great rare find. I have never seen anything like this on ebay before in 9 years of checking the rc model section. I doubt if he will sell it on ebay. Wrong demographics, but it will get the word out to a collector from somewhere in the world and that is the strength of ebay.

And you mugs are worrying about the asking price, enjoy the model for what is: RTR kit model art, that is rare, collectible and a one off.
