Default Building an S2000

Adam and I have been building car models together for some time now. We generally build sportscars. So far we've built a Shelby Cobra, an Audi TT, a Porsche Boxter, and an old Volkswagen Bus. Tonight we went into Wal-Mart to get some model glue and found the model that we've been searching for. Can you guess what our next project is going to be?

We couldn't find a Sebring Silver, so we bought the Spa Yellow. Of course my wife, E.W.A., wants to know why we need a sixth 1/18 scale model of the S2000. We told her that this is the first one that we will actually build. I don't think we convinced her.

I already have an assembled Spa yellow one, but how much is that one?

We paid $18.85 plus tax. We have an assemble one too, but we couldn't resist.

We found it in the model section of Wal-Mart.

Too bad front license plates are required in their 1:18 world. They wouldn't be in mne.

It looks like a great model. I'll look for it tomorrow.

Reminds me of my old model collection -- Dodge Chargers, Plymouth Superbirds, and Boss 302 Mustangs.
Have fun together!

hey I just bought a Maisto silver s2000 last night at walmart! its out there so keep lookin ! but once u find it, its gonna have nasy rice stickers all over and you can't take it off. The secret to getting it off is to use nail polish remover. And on that silver model, the hood is paintd black to resemble carbon fiber. use nail polish remover to get the hood back to silver !
