Not your average(scale) VIP style GS!
showin some GS lovin!
my brother owns a silver VIPstyle GS and i was gonna make a replica of his car, but decided to do something else. Anyway, its a tamiya Lexus GS400 body painted metallic black with work meisters staggered. 85% finished as i still need to paint/install side mirrors, curtains, custom TTE lip, and possibly rear lip. Let me know what you think and if you have an RC you would like to post, please post away!

the aristo is made by Tamiya and can be found on their website,Ebay, genkidoridori.com and or at your local hobby shop.
the LS600 is made by ABC Hobby and the honda odyssy is HPI. I only have one chassis but several different style bodies and rims lol

you can get these at your local hobby shop. They don't come like this, you gotta pick out what body/wheels/motor/etc you want. If you want one just for show and not racing/drifting it, i would get a simple tamiya TT-01 or HPI E10 which are entry level kits and just hop it up to your liking.
