Tamiya M-04L
I really love this model, the bodyshell is pretty authentic and the wheels look great. It is a mid-engine rear wheel drive chassis, the later revision (M06) made it a proper rear-engine rear wheel drive model. I really enjoyed building this model along with painting the bodyshell. One thing I didn't know until I did it was on a wooden or slick surface you can perform dohnuts!
The M04L Beetle is a really nippy car, it might not have the top end speed but the acceleration is great and with it being rear wheel drive it is fun in the corners.
A word of warning, with the screw on front and rear bumpers, it is really easy to scrape them and damage the bodyshell.
