The hot engine parts are painted with a mixture of Vallejo Rust, Jet Exhaust and Brown as well as Matt Varnish to prevent that the parts look to shiney.
The MP4 comes with an Euro-6 inline six 12.8 litre engine; range power output: 422 HP to 530 HP. Italeri matched the engine quite well and it is nicely detailed. There are some sink marks noticable.
