Tamiya
1/24 Scale
This plastic model kit depicts the fun to drive Mazda Roadster (also known as the Miata MX-5 in the US). Specifically, the kit recreates the RF model that was originally announced by Mazda in 2016; the initials stand for Retractable Fastback, as the car features a sleek fastback hard-top design with innovative retractable roof. In fact, the actual car's three-piece roof opens and closes in just thirteen seconds, and all at the push of a single button. It also features tweaks to its chassis and suspension to accommodate the heavier top section, while retaining all of Mazda’s vaunted safety features.
Features:
- The kit represents the 2017 model MX-5 RF, complete with options available on top grade models in the Japanese market such as Recaro seats, and BBS wheels
- Highly detailed static display model
- Includes parts to build as left or right-hand drive
- Side window parts allow for the hard top to be depicted up or down
- Detailed renditions of the suspension and interior
- Metal-plated parts are used to depict light reflectors and other components
- Decals are included for instrumentation and other details, as are metal transfers for emblems and side mirror surfaces
- Skill level 3
