Review
I was very pleased when I found out that Monogram made the kit of the 924.   The kit is partially assembled, and it's painted black by the previous owner.   It has good looking interior details with minimum omissions that can be added easily.  The wheels and tires appear correct, and it has clear tail light assembly.   Because this kit represents the U.S. version, it has ugly-looking bumpers.   However, by resin casting these bumpers, I don't have to scratch-build the bumpers for my US spec 944S .  I haven't decided whether to scratch-build the engine or not, but it's very tempting to do so since the 944 and 968 have the engine details.
