Default difference?

when i was looking at drift cars i noticed there are different priced yokomo kits. the ones with all the sponsor stickers are about 10 pounds more expensive even though they are on the same site ([link=http://www.apexmodels.com/product-search.php?call=show&what=man&man=7]here[/link]). is there actually a difference between the ones that are 144 and the ones that are 134 or do you just pay more for the fact that they are based on real drift cars?

thanks

The car itself isn't made for drifting, it's just got a different setup/shell/tyres to it's grip racing stablemates

You're asking about the difference between the Yokomo Street Version and D1 Grand Prix versions right? The D1 packages have exact replicas of certain D1 cars (HKS Silvia, Apex'i FD3S, Blitz ER34, Top Secret Silvia, and Kei Office Silvia. There are going to be 4 more D1 kits soon, but I won't let go of that info here.) which include all sponsor livery. The D1 kits also have actual wheel replicas, whereas the Street Version kits come with either chrome mesh wheels, or generic Longchamp style wheels. Lastly, the D1 kits come with the newer ZERO-ONE R tires and rings which use one wide ring as opposed to the twin-ring ZERO-ONE tires in the Street Version kits. Hope that made some sense.
