Aoshima AO-00848 1/24 Crown Athlete GRS214 Scale Model Kit  [AO-00848]

Aoshima 1/24 Crown Athlete GRS214 Scale Replica

The Aoshima 1/24 Crown Athlete GRS214 model kit gives hobbyists a chance to recreate the sporty Japanese saloon in fine scale. Introduced as part of the 210 series in 2012, the Crown Athlete blended comfort and sport, and this kit reflects the 3.5-liter gasoline variant with its 8-speed automatic transmission and paddle shifters, offering a satisfying project for modelers.

Prototype Details and Scale Fidelity

The real Crown Athlete GRS214 was noted for its bold front grille and aerodynamic lines, and this kit reproduces those traits with care. Builders will find accurate plating on the frame and center grille plus the distinctive 18-inch wheel styling associated with the 3.5-liter model.

Assembly Features and Presentation

Parts are designed for straightforward assembly, with hook-type mounts for bumpers and pre-colored clear red tail lenses to speed up finishing. Two types of plated parts are supplied to enhance realism, and optional upgrades such as etched metal details, metal seals, seat belts, and floor mats can be added separately for extra refinement.
