Inspired by the legendary 1970 Mustang Boss 302 Trans-Am Race Cars, the Mustang GT-R concept car demonstrates what can be accomplished when manufacturers offer the performance parts that racers demand. Based on Ford's 2005 Mustang chassis and 5.0 Liter "Cammer" crate engine, the Mustang GT-R concept produced 440 horsepower and 400 lb-ft of torque. Carisma captures the incredible look and feel of the concept in the 1/14-scale version, fully painted and detailed like the full-size car. From the chromed side exhaust pipes to the graphite-look hood and 5-spoke racing wheels, the Mustang GT-R from Carisma makes an impressive display piece that you can drive anytime.

Carisma's 1/14 ready-to-run cars captivate the casual eye with paint quality and detail that is on par with most die-cast models, while at the same time providing a hobby-quality chassis that beginners can easily repair and adjust.
All Carisma cars feature licensed bodies that are pre-painted and an independent front suspension, T-bar rear suspension, factory set camber and caster, and a bevel gear differential. The chassis rolls on scale-looking wheels and treaded tires complete with manufacturer logos. Perhaps the biggest feature though, is the ability to adjust wheelbase and width to accommodate bodies from other 1/14 Carisma cars. This not only allows beginners to try different body styles, but it gives them a taste of the tuning options a hobby-quality car offers.
The electronics are hobby-quality as well. Each car comes equipped with a 27MHz proportional radio system, an electronic speed control with reverse and a rechargeable battery pack with AC wall charger. Carisma has even thought to include 8 "AA" batteries for the pistol-grip transmitter, so there's literally nothing left to do but charge the battery pack and go.
