Not fair, what happened to the goup buy?

Did you get it through e-bay from that dude in Canada (Toronto)?

I love how you misled everyone though, good one.:p :p :p (except DJ of course)

Glad you asked, from a shop in Canada. He had an auction on ebay.

I've already talked to him about a groupbuy and he wants to do it, so if you are interested in buying one of these bad boys, send me an email webmaster@ephatch.com, with the subject "ephatch groupbuy". All I need is your name and address and the seller will contact you.

The special groupbuy price is $39.99 shipped please keep in mind that this package has been imported from Japan and sent from Canada to the US, mine had Japanese and Canadian stamps on it.

This model is of excellent quality, all the pieces are broken up like the real car, everything down to the suspension, it even has real rubber tires.

Here are some more pics:

I think I'll paint mine black. And paint the wheels gunmetal.

I was also thinking I might do Red but with a carbon fiber hood and black wheels, and I'd probably make the spoiler black too.
They also make tint paint to tint the windows. I'm excited!

Not fair, I want mine now...lol!

Actually I think I want 3 of them so I can make them different colours. I wonder if he'll go for 100$ US for 3 of them with shipping (to Canada)

I think I'll wait for a die cast model to come out. I'm far too lazy to make plastic models anymore.

Okay guys, here's the official word.

I just contacted a seller in NY who has these units in stock I'm waiting for a reply.

Not only will shipping be cheaper but it will come to your quicker, I also noticed he is selling them cheaper.

I'll post up the groupbuy information page as soon as I get word back from them.

Until then you can continue you to email me if you're in on the groupbuy.

DJ it will be less than $40 shipped, I think around $30-$35 depending on how many people participate. I hope I get a reply from these people soon, then I'll have all the details.
