Sure, but the second I can get my hands on one, I'm RC'ing it (just like the
8448) so Marie might 'upgrade' to a new set of wheels--

(scroll down a bit)
So I'm looking forward to the Ferrari, suspension or transmission missing or
not.
And with the ensuing flurry of mods that i'm sure this car'll bring out (like
the 4404 Land Buster--suspension, motorized, gear box, sterring, etc, whislt
still keeping the overall form of the set), there will be those great Technic
builders who will add all the 'missing components' :)

-who is really looking forward to this set and *cough* really wants TLC to get
it to Canada ASAP!! *cough* :)
