Now im an Abu guy but this this is one sexy reel by shimano http://www.ebay.com/itm/Avail-BAIT-FINESSE-Tuning-Shimano-Scorpion-XT-1001-Left-Handle-FROM-JAPAN-/300740012991?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4605806bbf&_uhb=1#ht_6840wt_1270

once again why do JDM reels gotta be so much cooler then ours even the names are better

Dead sexy, but that 400 dollar price tag makes me cringe

I wish there were just parts to make our reels look like that the handle and star are sick. I wonder actually I used to have a guy who made me custom paintball parts out of aluminum, delrin, and carbon fiber all I had to do is draw sketch and he could make it I wonder hmmmmmmmm the mouse wheel in my head is turning I got some ideas lol.

I want one! But at that price just can't do it!!

Now why can't Shimano release a US version? It just aint fair!

They did. It was the curadoE. Just not as refined.

The price of that ebay auction is ridiculously high. Xts can be found new for 250.00.

I just picked up a 1500 for $86 and a 1000 for $190. Awesome reels, so light and they cast a mile. Check Ebay for deals if you want a cheaper one. I looked for about a month before I hooked up with the 2 I snagged.

I have all Daiwa baitcasters, but I'd join the Shimano Posse for one of these.
