Glad to have the CSM Evo X, both in red RHD and white RHD, the latter modified with markings, light and sound into a cool cop car that was operated by Humberside Police in the UK as an interceptor in the Road Crime Unit back in the day (actually, ten years ago, follow link above for pics and video of the interceptor).
Will Lancer x have open elements and at what price???
GREETING MM POLAND
Not sure. But this model should be along the their same pricing standards.
I think it will, looking at the white and silver ones they appear to have openings and the most recent modern car they released (Subaru WRX) had at least an opening bonnet and front doors.
I’ve got to say, I’m so used to their endless re-releases and repaints that I almost fell off my chair at seeing Sun Star having new tooling! The images make it look like a decent effort too.
I havea red Evo X by CSM and I wonder if they went through the trouble of making new tooling for this or if they acquired that by CSM and perhaps added a different wheel design. Afterall they haven’t been doing anythi9ng completely new for quite some time, if I remember correctly.
I guess they could derivea few rally versions from this one.
Wow, I did not expect this at all. Waited too long to pull the trigger on a CSM and then it just wasn’t worth the asking price for me anymore.
Very excited to see what this will be like in hand.
