New vintage-ish car drop... Another Jeff idea copied?

something onroad with a rear diffuser. perhaps an old rc100 or 500 or something like that. I know I have seen something before with the sway bar center attachment

Another oval car variant? Mid motor? God forbid, a 4wd DS?......

RC10 DS 4WD MM (mid motor) 61st Anniversary Halsey Green Gold Metallic Classic Opaque (non-clear) Team Car Edition?

RC10 DS GT (Nitro)?

Appears to be a flat aluminum frame, bolt on side guards.
Am I seeing dual shocks per arm from what looks to be the rear of the car?
Sway bar, short dog bones, bottom loading threaded shock bodies, beefy looking hubs and weird gray colored plastic toe links?

Some kind of modern vintage road racer?

its pretty modern, something hoonicorn related probably. Note the dual rear shocks, you can see the 3rd one on the right side.

That rear light pattern screams F40.

Struck me more as GTR. Maybe around R33

Nope. 1963 Mercury Comet! Ok, ok, it's probably not a Merc.

Not entirely out of the realm of possibility!

Woooooo! 64 Comet is one of my favorites.

I have been patiently waiting for Kyosho's GM and Chrysler contracts to expire so we can hopefully get some Ford and Mercury bodies for the Fazer.

F355?

What it is NOT is the RC10 Graphite we're waiting for!

AE's most recent car styled kits, like the drag racer and stadium truck (I htink) were more generic car and truck, so I'm betting it'll be a vaguely styled sports car.

I GOT IT!

The white dot in the center of the inner lights just dawned on me. Wonder if it'll be a tribute to Trans Am racing? Though the Plymouth Cuda AAR was 70 only (I think) and those had different taillights. The 72-75 Barracudas had the round taillights.

It's a Meyers Manx... I hope they make it Swing Axle not IRS
