Mazda Sex... umm, I mean 6

Since my homie 219 began his extravagant Blingy-T mini t project a few months ago, the urge to get into 1/18th scale had been getting to be too much... the more stuff he bought for that truck, the more I wanted a 1/18th tourer... anyhoo, a few weeks ago I took the plunge and bought one of those Duratrax Micro Street Forces that Tower was(still is!) practically giving away...

Long story short... if you've seen the stock MSF body shell, you know that it is one of the grossest, most booty lookin' attempts at making a generic sports car EVER. So, when I ordered the ride, I also threw down for a Protoform Mazda 6 shell to go with it...

So, here it is, in all of its sexy Mazda glory, done in Pactra metallic red, with the stock hubcaps done in a nice gunmetal... Oh, and I made an internal antenna mount out of a strip of the scrap lexan so there would be no mast sticking up and detracting from all the sexiness...

I came really close to painting this ride candy purple, but I came to my senses and decided to do it in a believable color...

Oh, yeah... My MSF review is coming soon, and my addiction to YET ANOTHER micro scale has been cemented by my recent purchase of yet another 1/18th tourer, the HPI Micro RS4(kit version), and my decision to soon aquire the creme de la creme 1/18th micro tourer, the Xray M18...

Because you can never have too many micros...

That came out great!! I thought you were going to cover it with decals, but now I see you didn't.

Wait till the Micro RS4's get here in the morning. They should be arriving by UPS sometime before 3pm tomorrow.

More toys!!!!

It's nice to see people can enjoy different scales of the hobbies.. I'd like to have one of every scale, and one of every vehicle, but that's not possible with my loot....

I wiil however own a shit ton before I'm done.

Cool purchase man.. I know you'll like the RS4s as well...

I'm waitning on a new 1/10 nitro myself, and it sucks waiting.

Thanks, man... I knew you would dig it what with your Mazda fetish and all...

And, yeah... the spoiler... I guess these are supposed to be race bodies, and that's what they give you to work with...

@Payaso... You CAN have it all!!! You know how broke I've been!!! I'm just starting to catch up on all of the shit that I want to get, and I've adopted 219s "buy as cheap as possible" philosophy... it's working out great so far.
