Default New Alfa Romeo M04M

Here's a few pics of my new Alfa. Just for fun. Nobody races them around here.

It's got a few upgrades already:

1. Manta Ray Diff
2. Tamiya Universals
3. Hollow Carbon Gear Shafts
4. S.S. Hinge Pins
5. M04 Motor Heatsink
6. Ball Bearings

On the way:

1. Lightweight Kingpins
2. Titanium/Alum screw mix.
3. Red and Blue locknuts-red on left side of car , blue on right.

On a personal note, I wish Tamiya would re-release some bodies from previously released but now discontinued cars like the Fiat Abarth, the Renault Alpine and VW Beetle. And more upgrades-re-release the discontinued M04 sway bars and motor heatsink. Maybe even come out with a new M04 based Porsche 911 RSR and BMW CSL?
