In the 1970, Carrera offered 1:24, 1:32 and 1:60 scales for slot cars, and the slot-free "Servo" systems which allowed cars to switch lanes, guided by the guard rails on the outside. Due to the many systems offered, and fewer customers (Generation), Neuhierl had to sell his company in 1985, and took his own life. The new owners sold rather cheap products.

2011 Scion FR-S Concept


The new concept for the new 2011 Scion FR-S Concept is to stimulate the soul of every driving enthusiast. The FR-S concept (front-engine, rear-wheel drive, Scion) is what the company describes as the authentic rear-wheel driving in sports cars with undeniable style and design, remarkably balanced handling and performance, elastic utility and surprising MPG. This model is designed and made to be lightweight with wheelbase made short to emulate the idea of pure-balance on a car. This feature enables the car to be maneuvered easily in and out of corners and for sleek fast speed with confidence in its stability and durability.

The exteriors of this model fiercely reflect that of its inner power and performance. Its profile has a hood line designed to be exceptionally low yet sleek made possible by its boxer’s architecture. The headlights are placed in a way that when lit, it brightly illuminates the edgy and sleek taillights as well as the “Scion” logo.


The naturally aspirated engine of this car is very innovative allowing utilization of both the direct and port injection and as a result, you get more horsepower and torque on the entire power band without compromising MPG. With innovation in power and performance, this car truly stimulates and unleashes adrenalin on a driver’s soul.
