Also, guys keep in mind that the prices for the parts here are going to be a bit higher than just a normal yen to USD conversion as we have to cover a lot of cost of shipping, customs and other service charges. Thank you for your understanding.

Hi Guys,
I was told that the car was shipped out last Friday, so everything is on schedule to arrive this week. I will check the tracking number tomorrow morning and give you guys an update.
Also, we are doing the best we can on prices, some of you might be able to find the parts cheaper else where internationally (like HK, which is a lot closer to Japan) but we are trying to distribute the car to other shops so it becomes more widely available, so please if you can, support your local shops
I was working on a preliminary price list last night and so far the prices looks very good compare to other brands of cars, so we are looking in good shape.
Thanks

p.s. any F1 fans in here? That was a wild first round at Australia, I'm still watching the tape (but I already know who won...no Ferrari on the Podium!!! when was the last time that happened?)

Fastburn,
We are trying hard to keep this kit no more than $300...and it looks like we will hit our target price. Also, shipping to canada for a car kit is around $29.99 by USPS EMS I believe. I don't like shipping regular air mail (as they have a chance of getting lost) EMS is fast, with tracking number and insurance.
If you planning on pre-ordering one, it is time to do it now, because I believe our first batch is down to just 3-4 kits.

Thats great news, price still seems very competitive to me, especially against our rip off UK prices, even after what I'm estimating import to cost 
3-4 kits me thinks Alex Racing will have to start building a bigger factory
