http://www.re-amemiya.co.jp/new_part...o_d1_rx_7.html

This would be an awsome toy to have. I found this on Re-Amemiya's web site.

I was just looking through there new products and came across this. I have a couple RX-7 RC cars, but not this one.

How much money does that convert to?
Does it come with a radio also? Sorry I can't read it, I can only look at the pictures.

We'll have to do something about that, now won't we?

Oh and trust me, I didn't forget the Apexi D1 Drift RC car you showed me. I FLIPPED over it lol

How much money does that convert to?
Roughly $210.

Does it come with a radio also? Sorry I can't read it, I can only look at the pictures.
The description (roughly) reads as follows (I had to improvise what I thought some of it meant lol):

"The performance which excels, always without compromise, hitting the apex of the drift, fascinating the audience with his hot runs.

This is the 2006 series car, which is also known as the D1 “RE Amemiya Greddy D1 RX-7” machine, and the Suenaga Masao driver who participated in the professional drift championship.

Now you are able to enjoy the charm of the drift easily with this electromotive radio control car assembly kit, scaled 1/10.

Adopting “MR-4TC SD mall dead type” to the chassis for Yokomo's up-to-date race chassis. (I didn't understand this part at all lol).

The high potential which is cultivated with various races such as all the Japanese championships can now be enjoyed by you at your own leisure.

In addition, this kit features the drift tire which actualizes the drift angle (patent pending), adopting the ultralow profile type with racing angles.

Also included are the sponsor graphics. It can be reproduced in simple paint.

The GT wing, aero mirror and wheels are included as well, and are for both function and visual satisfaction."

Whew

Thanks for the translation Funny how it translates " the charm of the drift" too funny.
Doesn't seem to come with a radio, not a problem. That thing is larger than I thought, at 1/10th scale. Really cool A little mor than my Tyco drift 7, but well worth it.

No need to special order this just for me but if you have a shipment coming back or somthing, talk to me and include it with it.

Ok, I've done some housekeeping (removed all non-GB posts), as it seems we have enough interest to run a GB on here. So please go ahead and add your name to the (serious) interest list:

Thanks,

This is the LAST TIME I post this in this thread...
NO EXTERNAL LINKS TO ANY OTHER VENDORS ARE ALLOWED IN THIS FORUM WITHOUT PRIOR APPROVAL FROM FDNEWBIE IMPORTS.
I have deleted EVERY SINGLE ONE of those previous posts, and left the comments CRYSTAL CLEAR on this aspect (see the notes in the deleted posts). I WILL NOT repeat this warning again. Those who disregard this final warning will have action taken against them. Please respect the private vendor forum rules, or do not enter them.

Thanks,

Hey Ramy, I was going to post a link to an RC car I'm interested in, but now I'm scared .

Anyways, is it possible for you to get a deal going for the RX7 RC car made by Tamiya USA? If it's okay with you I can post the link I have for that specific RC car. Let me know.

Thanks,

Riz

Riz, the issue is when I'm trying to get a GB going, and ppl post things like "oh you can get this from here" or "oh I have one for sale" etc. What ppl don't realize is I PAY for this vendor subforum. It's my own business personal space. Posting info about competing businesses in MY vendor section is not only disrespectful, but it's unacceptable. Those vendors aren't paying for my section, now are they? If you'd like to make such posts, feel free to do so OUTSIDE of the FDNewbie Imports Vendor Subforum...it's for FDNewbie Imports related posts ONLY.

Oh and Riz, if it's a personal purchase, email me. If you wanna see if we can get a GB going for it, feel free to start a feeler thread in my section, but please make it clear in your initial post that this is for a GB through FDNewbie Imports ONLY, so plz no competitor links...

Thanks,
~Ramy

PS: I have some good news for ya btw Riz. Check your email in a few min
