Anyone have the new Tamyia RC 1st Gen yet?

Wondered if anyone on here has coughed up the coin for one? I am thinking pretty hard about getting one. It's just too cool to pass up. No one ever makes anything for the 1st gens anymore. It's always the FD. Thinking about getting one of these and painting it Sunrise Red to match Gus.

An FB with fender mirrors? What's up with that?

If it was an SA, I'd be on my way to the store already.

Its supposed to be a JDM Savanna RX-7 which always had the fender mounted mirrors, AFAIK. Very cool either way, a little too rich for me though.
