Tamiya 24275 Porsche Carrera GT 1:24 Scale Model Car Kit

Tamiya 24275 Porsche Carrera GT. 1:24 Scale Model Car Kit

The Porsche Carrera GT grabbed the world's attention when first unveiled as a concept car at the 2000 Paris Auto Show. Promoted as Porsche's next generation flagship super sports car, the Carrera GT was officially unleashed onto the international motoring market in 2003. Incorporating the latest and most extreme racing technology, the Carrera GT lines up against the impressive range of super sports cars offered by the worlds top makers, such as the Enzo Ferrari and the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren. Featuring a powerful 5.7 litre V10 engine, carbon-fibre monocoque chassis and push-rod suspension all wrapped up in classic Porsche style and elegance, the Carrera GT is the ultimate high-end sports car.

The rear hood can be opened and closed allowing display of engine and mechanics even after completion. The monocoque chassis and front and rear suspension are accurately reproduced. Metal plated parts include wheels and exhaust pipe. The rear spoiler can be assembled in opened or closed position. Display quality further enhanced by metal transfers used for mirrors and Porsche emblem. In order to accurately reproduce the curve of the mesh engine cover, clear plastic with mesh design decals has been used. The roof panels also come as separate pieces, allowing you to have the choice of an open-top or hardtop model.

The Carrera GT features superb interior detailing, with even the door interior being assembled from 3 separate pieces. Pieces for the dashboard have also been divided by finishing colour, allowing for easy painting without the need for fidgety masking. Even hidden elements come as intricately detailed pieces, such as the brake pedals and side brake between the drivers seat and door.

The racing inspired V10 power plant which replaces Porsche's traditional horizontal 6-cylinder engine has been reproduced in meticulous detail and accuracy. All other distinctive aspects of the drive train have been carefully replicated including the horizontal transmission, air intake, exhaust system and push rod type rear suspension.

This model measures 193mm (length) by 83mm (width) by 49mm (height).
