I was just joking about Zaino'ing my model but I did it with the real RX8.

If you haven't heard of Zaino, check it out in some of the other threads (i.e. RX-8 Show & Shine). It's probably the best product for cleaning and shining your car.

Maybe a little Pledge(tm).

Actually knew someone who used Pledge and a damp cloth to polish their car. Sounded crazy, but his was always the cleanest looking car on the lot, even in the winter.

Beauty!!!! I hope to be getting my blue 1:64th soon in the mail. Then hopefully a 1:18th scale silver to match the actual car I am eventually going to be getting!

The 1/18 models are really great - much better than my 1/43.

The larger models have doors, hoods and trunks (boots for the UK etc. members) that open. Their insides have seat belts and other realistic parts.

I wanted the 1/43 model to put on the dash when I show my RX8.

i have both the AA 1/43 and 1/18, if only they would make the models with the appearance package, it would match my 1/1 perfectly...oh well

I'm waiting for someone to come out with a 1/18 blue RX8.

They currently have Red, Yellow, and Silver (or Titanium) but no Black, Green, nor Blue yet.

Actually you can Zaino them and it should help keep them looking great.
