Shelby GT Model Assembly Kit

[DSPGuy]

My friend recently bought a new 2022 Shelby GT500. I will be visiting him soon and wanted to bring him, as a gift, a model kit which he could paint and assemble, of a car like his. I haven't been able to find one online to purchase. There are lots of 1967 Shelby GT500 model kits and a few others which are closer, but none close enough. Does anyone know of where I can purchase one?
I've also found plenty of 2022 Shelby GT500 model cars which are of the pre-cast and pre-painted sort. But those won't do. I want him to be able to build and paint it himself. When we were kids, he built lots of models, and I think he would really enjoy replicating his new GT500.
Thank you,
DSPGuy

These are really cool. Not a model but cool none the less.

I had seen that. Cool, yes. But not what I'm looking for. Thank you.

Unfortunately there is no one that makes an unassembled model of a current GT500 (2020-22).

Not doubting you, but how are you certain that there aren't any?

Because I spend time on all of the model websites looking for newer Mustangs. I've yet to find one. I hope I'm wrong.

OK, fine I'm wrong. This is only a snap together kit (honestly wasn't looking for these) but it is available.

I’m sure you’ve gathered this seeing as where you posted the question. There’s not much that escapes the members here when its related to just about anything with these cars. Lol

Well, that's getting close. The Revell is of year 2018. I'm looking fo 2022. The grill looks quite different. Thanks for the suggestions though. I appreciate it.

Those options might be right for someone, but in my original post I stated that pre-cast and/or pre-painted models are not what I'm looking for. Thank you.
