Description

The E46 GTR should be instantly recognisable to everyone who grew up in the mid-2000s. This 61cm long model is packed with the usual functions of a 1:8 scale build: opening doors & hood, suspension, a functioning engine, accurate body and a massive aero pack.

But that’s not what truly sets this model apart from the rest. Each individual function is taken to a new level. The opening doors also feature locks. The engine comes complete with a radiator, cooling fan, intake manifold, cover and even a timing chain.

The engine is coupled to a 6 speed gearbox with an H pattern shifter and this model even has a functioning clutch pedal (which we believe is a first). Add onto this a functioning handbrake (another first?) & Ackermann steering geometry and it becomes clear why we’ve deemed this to be the most intricate model ever released.

That’s before we even mention that most of the blue livery is done using dark blue blocks, without the use of stickers…
