Carisma 1/8 M48S 1997 Subaru Impreza WRC Rally Car
Carisma has some big news for rally car fans. Taking their love of scale detail to another level, they've announced the release of their 1/8-scale M48S 1997 Subaru WRC Rally Car (#87368).
Larger than their typical 1/24 and 1/10-scale releases, the M48S captures the styling of the 1:1 1997 Subaru Impreza WRC driven by the late-great Colin McRae. With molded body features from bumper to bumper, the blue paint, replica decals, and gold, multi-spoke wheels make this a wonderful conversation piece, whether on display or in motion.
Under the hood (or body), the M48S features a brushless motor and brushless ESC capable of handling 2S LiPo power. A 3-diff setup helps to ensure all of that power is well-utilized by the car's four-wheel-drive drivetrain.
