Noj Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 The original is like hen's teeth. I like it, retro. Could this mean a re-re of the Quattro is on the cards?? Hope so! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PraetoR Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Yet more rehashed stuff from the company that must have the World's most comfortable laurels to rest upon!! Although, I still love Tamiya, but I don't really understand why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noj Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Because the world demands re-issues of models which command stupid money second hand? I agree that as laurel resters, the crown is earned, however they know that whatever they produce will sell. In large volumes. Such is the brand power. The Japanese market will be all over this like a rash, fo sho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PraetoR Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 If they're going to re-re something, I want it to be THAT Alfa 155 shell! The one from the TA-01. MUST. FIT. TO. LOSI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz! Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Oh boy, just when I was finally happy with my collection this pops up..... Been after a original for a while but the last decent one went on eBay for over four hundred quid and I would want to run it.... This is a must and I shall be having one ASAP....... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atom3624 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Don't understand why, but I like it. Cannot possibly high-power (no point, it'll be falling over non-stop) it which means its a simple 'fun starter' car. Al. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oodboo Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 I don't think many of these will spend much time running. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCbutcher Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Is it the Honda city turbo? I saw that car on old top gear and loved it i thought it could be cheap first car but i was wrong. Ill try to find the top gear episode with it. Thers a new honda city coming out this year mayb tamiya will release one too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smeghead28 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 The original one eventually became one of the "holy grail" of the Tamiya models. It is what it is I suppose and tastes have moved on but theres no harm in a bit of fun now and again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbhaze Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 It's the Honda City Turbo, which is this ugly in real life. I reckon this will sell fast, like preorder now fast. I'm putting in for 3 of them; play/display/preserve Can't really have a go at Tamiya for re-releasing old ranges. That's market forces for you. They have taken the unprecedented step of listening to the customer base* and re-released several classics over the last couple of years. I personally hope they continue to do it. *this statement does not apply to the recently released Grand Hauler IMO 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pistonhead Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 First thought was 'what have Tamiya done now' but after having a second look, i might be tempted into one, but it definitely needs white writing on the tyres lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
