TAMIYA Introduces The Porsche Carrera GT Radio Control Lineup

There is no denying that Porsche makes some of the most exciting and stylish sports cars the world has ever seen. Filled with tradition, Porsche is synonymous with style, speed, performance and above all else, technology. Ever so often, the Porsche designers will come up with the next big thing. That next big thing is the Porsche Carrera GT. The Carrera GT is Porsches' latest Super car that may be purchased for the modest sum of $440,000.00. At Tamiya we are also filled with tradition and above all else we pride ourselves in making the most scale and accurate R/C cars the world has seen. Tamiya uses a three piece molding process to make RC polycarbonate bodies the most accurate in the industry. By using the three piece mold process, Tamiya designers are able to add undercuts to the body for enhanced scale and realism. Typical one piece molds can not duplicate the intricacies of the front and rear body work whereas the three piece mold can.

Tamiya is proud to announce the Carrera GT in 1/10 scale R/C. Four variations are offered to meet the needs of the radio control enthusiast. From beginners to veterans there is a Porsche Carrera GT that will meet your needs.
