Question Junction Produce kit car!!

Dear fellow CLer's, I came across this ebay website and found a 1/24 scale Junction GS car. I was wondering the quality of this model and if it is worthy of purchasing. If you do own one, could you please post pics of the final product so I could see the fit and finish? thanks.

That kit is made by Aoshima. I have one but didn't build it yet. I did build the Auto Couture Aristo. If you want the JP kit to look like the box pic, you have to mod the suspension though. Here is a pic of the AC one.

You can get these kits from online stores, or ebay. I used to get mines from HLJ.com, but I get my kits from a local hobby shop now. For the suspension, the Junction Produce, Falcon Aristo, and the Explosion Aristo have fixed suspension that sit just about the top of the tires. If you want it to tuck the tire, you may need to mod the wheel wells, and susp. The Auto Couture Aristo (pictured above) and Celsior have independant moveable height suspension that can slam to the ground or 3 wheel,ss,fb. Any of the "luxy" kits have the moveable height suspension. Good luck on your search. Post some pics when you build one.
