Whoever dumb enough to want one of these deserve to have their credit card information stolen.

It's all in good humor. The ones with the airplanes are pretty funny too. I didn't know they were so pricey though.

Do you have to drive it backwards so the engine is in the right place?

damn you made me spill my tea

nah, I have seen the kit for sale on ebay and there was an article somewhere, it looked pretty decent

the following pic is another ebay variation of the kit, not the original, I must say, if you wanna be a poser, this would do it
