Absolute Hot BMW X5

From My Majo Finds Thread comes the Absolute Hot BMW X5. It's an insanely detailed 1/64 casting. It features separate caliper/brake discs, separately molded front windshield wipers and roof rack rails, full tampo/decal job including the running boards and the (impossible to see or photograph) dashboard, and separately molded/chromed exhaust (those tailpipes poking out the rear are actually a separate piece).

Sure it's got a few flaws that reveal themselves in photographs, like the rear brake disc being too low, some imperfect spray painting masking issues and lacks the proper lines on the rear taillights but at this point these are nitpicks.

Appears to be made in the same factory that makes the high end Kyosho Original models as it comes in the same clear box.

Enjoy!

It is a marvellous model, The X6 is just the same level of awesomeness.

What do you think about front wheel steering on it?
