I bought this model awhile back and have finally gotten around to putting it together. The quality of the pieces is good, however the details are lacking. Dashboard details are barely recognizable, and the interior overall is sub-par. I was also disappointed by the instructions, particularly the undercarriage assembly and the final engine pieces. There are many small pieces to assemble for the front and rear suspensions, for example, but the instructions are simply an exploded view with vague lines to the general vicinity of where they go. All of the pieces are shown far away from their final place, and there isn't any indication of the order of where to put them in - you'll need to dry assemble many pieces in a few different combinations before you're ready for the glue (usually a good idea anyway, but an absolute must for this model kit).
Lastly, the fit on the front and back bumpers leaves a lot to be desired. Expect to have to modify them a bit to get a clean line.
