Carrera Digital 132 Chevrolet Dekon Monza " No 27"
Item No. 30905
The Chevrolet Dekon Monza is a relatively old model in the range, first appearing in 2008 in two analogue versions and since 2015 in further designs as both an analogue and a digital model.
The present variant in strong dark red metallic with the starting number 27 is a fantasy design, but is similar to the original which was sponsored by a well-known American beer producer with the starting numbers 19 and 20.
The metallic paint has a deep shine, appears somewhat garish and therefore fits well with a model whose original vehicle dates back to the 1970s.
Technically, the model still uses the older chassis generation, meaning the magnets are accessible without having to unscrew the body. Additional spacers are included in the spare parts compartment of the box, allowing the distance of the holding magnets from the road surface to be adjusted as desired. Removing the magnets is also easy. Furthermore, the model features front and rear lighting.
At 104 grams, the model is no lightweight and therefore doesn't promise record times on the track. However, the relatively thick tires provide good damping and, together with the weight, solid roadholding. When operated without the rear magnet, controllability at the limit is increased, as always, while lap times are somewhat slower overall. Overall, it's difficult to find a rival vehicle that matches this car not only visually but also technically. The most suitable options are, of course, the other design variants of the Dekon Monza, all of which are more suited to enthusiasts of racing cars outside the mainstream.
