Some vintage racing cars like 1960's and 1970's Le Mans => Porsche 906, Ferrari GTO etc.. Like the Kyosho Nostalgic Series a couple of years ago. But this was Nitro.
A decent looking Porsche 917 would also be great. I've seen a few bodies in the web around but they do not look right at all...

and for what it's worth. id still like to get my hands on a 190 or 200mm VW Bus (pre 67 model). somebody made one at some point cause i saw one like 25 years ago. never found out who made the damn thing. i know HPI and Tamiya have both made them, but are were M size.
I'm pretty sure Tamiya just announced the vw bus body was coming back as a kit or just the body not sure there.

Personally I'd love to see more accurate scale touring cars. So thing like the 90's supertourers that early RC race shells were modelled on in a more accurate scale, such as the Tamiya Alfa 156 and Audi A4 and more modern versions such as more cars of the current TCR rules

While we're at it, maybe wishlists should be specific:

VTA:

USGT:

Mini:

TC:

Ooooh, here's one F1. But I think those are mostly covered. :-)
​​​​​​Sure its not a Tamiya Civic body in the MST kit? I understand some kits come with Tamiya bodies. The CRX was a much simpler car, thus a simpler rc body. The Tamiya EG civic hatch body is one of the best.
I still have a pristine Honda S2000 M04 un-built kit but looking at the body the S2000 body is even better than the Civic EG.

No, it's not a tamiya body. It's ~better~ than tamiya. And the parts kit that came with it, and the decal sheet, are definitely not tamiya.

The CRX is a harder car to mold, due to it having more square edges. The EG is a pretty round body, and lends itself well to being vacuum formed.

Default Off the beaten path

Just found a Marcos LM600 body in 190mm. Marcos was a British specialty car company. The LM600 ran in the American LeMans series in the late 1990s, as well as the Dutch Supercar Series and others.0
