Tamiya offers us this incredible and detailed kit of the latest generation of the Toyota Supra, a classic among Japanese sports cars whose first version appeared in the late 70s.

The Tamiya kit allows you to reproduce all the details of this great car, such as its beautiful wheels with fine spokes separated into two pieces, and includes such interesting details as the masks for painting the windows or the metallic transfers for some of the mirrors or emblems of the bodywork.
