can anyone tell me a bit more on this.. for all i know (read it on an international site), 5 were built, mainly for this japanese action series.. but i was under the impresion all 5 were black.. but i do also recall someone (very rich) ordered some parts from mitsubishi and made one himself.. im wondering is this silver one that one? or there were more made by mitsubishi..

i dont think they were mass produced.. :shock:

Drop Jackie Chan a line then. I'm sure he's sell you his...maybe.
Or maybe not... :?
Nice though.
Anyone who had one of these things in Oz, would be the envy of everyone!
I think there was about 12 built all in all, but I'm not entirely sure...

That first pic is of a 4wd motorised model of the gull-wing Starion. This unique Starion was made especially for a Japanese TV cop show. I think only two were made for that show, but one or two other people have made their own with parts that were spares for the two cars and were sold after the show stopped production. I have never seen pics of the silver one, only of the black ones. Thanks for the post :)

I sent Jackie Chan a email. i dont expect a reply though.
I asked since he has so much money could he spare to give me the car since im such a nice person and im the only one in the world who should be trusted with such a nice guy and all.
