It arrived in the mail today. No complaintes from me, other than a non opening hood-it has opening vents that reveal an engine, but no hood? My other is that the gas cap is a tacky decal. Anyway, for $30, it's fantastic. If it had flocked floors and a full engine compartment I would likely be comparing this to my AutoArt Panoz GTR1. I've noticed that in most models, metallic paint comes off as looking of poor quality (with the exception of the Panoz, of course). But Jadi has really pulled off some magic on the paint-it still has the orange peel (once again, the only model I have with a perfect coat of paint is an AutoArt Alfa Romeo GTV) but the colouring is fantastic. Other colours availible thus far are red and silver. Under harsh light, the metallic looks a little bad, but keep in mind that it looks great anywhere else. I appreciate little bits of detail around the car, such as the interior of the pillars being black, as with the tiny vent below the headlamps. The interior is nice, albeit basic, but hell, the interiors of Sagari are basic. The roll bar is something that surely Maisto or HotWheels would've let slip by. On the rear end, the edges of the tail-lamp covering stick out (as in sight, they stick out, not as in the covering actually sticks off the body), but the exhaust pipes and plastic see-through spoiler more than compensate. I appreciate that the hinges for the tailgate weren't kept blue and that the radials on the rear window were painted, wheras most other low end model companies would make little grooves to make the impression of radials. The undercarriage is well done, as well. Overall, I recommend this car for anyone. I was worried ordering this in a metallic colour, and was even more worried that I might have had to repaint it, but it looks great and you won't be sorry for pulling out a mere $30 for this. I can't wait fro my Jadi Lotus Elise to arrive.
