UK fine model car maker Amalgam has finally released the photos of their completed 1/8th scale Nissan GT-R model. Amalgam are recognized as the premiere model maker and supplier of models to high end luxury car manufacturers and racing teams globally.
At 1/8th scale this model is around 22 inches or 58 cm in length and weighs 5kg. It’s huge by any standard and is the most phenomenally well detailed model you’ll ever see.
Take a look at these photos (and the others at the link (http://finemodelcars.com/hi-res/gallery_road_race_1_8th_nissan_gtr.php) below). You can see everything has been recreated from the texture of the brake rotors, the reflections in the tail lamps, the stitching on the seats and accurate labels on the dashboard buttons.
These models are now available via Zele International in Japan (http://www.zele-international.com/news/press_release/20091120-zele-distributes-amalgam-fine-model-cars-in-japan.html) for 398,000 yen a piece. For those wanting a model of their own GT-R, a custom version of the Amalgam GT-R model is available and starts at a price of 498,000 yen.
