I was looking around on Towerhobbies.com for some diecast models, and I did my weekly search of the Kyosho Mini-Z r/c cars. If some are not familiar, these are 1/28 scale fully funtional r/c cars, that come in many different bodies, Enzo, Diablo, Mclaren F1 street, just to name a few, they even have a 427 s/c Cobra, check it out 427 shelby cobra mini-z . I keep looking and hoping for the chance that a Ford GT body would come out eventually. Well low and behold, this isn't a Ford GT, but it is just as good, take a look what I found 05 Mustang GT Mini-Z.

Tower says March timeframe for this. They also have a Silver with White stripes color coming out also. The prices of Mini-Z cars aren't cheap, anywhere from $110 to $160, depending on where you buy it from, but you get alot for the money, as there are hundreds of hop up parts to make these go faster. Even if you break something, you can fix it, and not throw it away like some toy store r/c cars from the past. There are many hobby shops starting racing leagues with these, as you only need a 12' x 12' are to make a great track. I can't wait for this to come out, as I will make up a small track to race this around. Just wanted to let all the Mustang faithful know about this. I have the Enzo model, and these things really move for their size. Hope you all like.

I love the narrow grille, i'd prefer it like that for the real thing actually.

Hey Steve, I actually ordered the blue Mustang GT body from a Mini-Z fan site. I only paid $31.99, + $5.00 shipping for it. I have the Enzo, as that chassis is the same but it isn't working right, so I am looking on ebay for the new Lamborghini Murcielago, as both are mid mounted chassises. I can't wait to see what the body looks like in person.
