Aoshima 1992 Toyota Cresta 2.5 Super Lucent G 1/24 Scale

In October 1992, the X90 Chaser replaces the previous X81 Chaser. It came with a larger body, and better handling, plus more power. The body is now more curvier than before, and one can see that the car is quite long. The line-up combinations is largely carried over from the X81 Chaser, but the GT Twin Turbo was abolished and replaced by the new Tourer V.

The top-of-the-line Avante G model received the 220 ps normally-aspirated 2JZ-GE, the next evolution of the JZ series of engines (the most powerful being the 2JZ-GTE twin turbo which powers the flagship JZA80 Supra which is released in the same year). The Tourer V was still powered by the 1JZ-GTE engines, carried over from the GT Twin Turbo model.

By now, a manual version of the Tourer V made it to the line-up, which is suitable for the car to complement its sporty driving characteristics. There is also a Tourer S model, which is basically the same as the Tourer V, minus the turbocharger. In September of 1992, the Tourer models received upgrades in trim levels, in which makes it more better equipped, although not to the level of the Avante G. Thus it is not surprising when the prices of these models were slightly higher than before.
