It's Siddhant,Channa.Not Ravi.But I wouldn't blame you.I see multi-coloured Audi R8 models and I think of Ravi immediately too!Big Grin
I know how you feel,Karan.But the white one's worth grabbing.As Guggga said,it's kinda rare.Also,Mr Mehta of Automania tells me that nearly all of Kyoshos 1:18 Audi R8 scale-models are sold out and future consignments are most likely to be missing this awesome supercar.Dunno how serious he is about this but I saw a life-sized white Audi R8 V10 in the metal the other day and its quite a stunner.You should get it too,Gugggs.Will go well with the light blue Spyder.

Sorry mate, as u say R8 usually brings Ravi to the picture. Congrats on the addition buddy.

I've been eyeing it for quite sometime now to put it next to the blue spyder that I have! But I want the F40 first!!

trust me Guggga white one doesn't give all the glamour and too much on plain side... better get blue or red R8..

I hear you bro. But personally, I really like the contrast of the white against the black bits in the interiors and exteriors. The wheels on the white one seem to jump out more and look lovely.
Moreover, the interior trim is light colored too.

To be honest, I havent seen the R8 by Kyosho in a bad color yet!! They all look so bloody good! If i had the money, I'd love to own a rainbow of R8s, Kyosho has done such a brilliant job on them with all the mesh, features and overall finish. If this was an Autoart- they'd have charged 130+ USD for the same model!

Back to my pledge- I am after the F40 now. F40 nahin toh kuch nahin for me!! Big Grin

RE: 1:18 Audi R8
^^ Guggga....if there's one white supercar you should definitely have it's the 959....unfortunately, Modelart decided to get the 959 in red. Not bad looking either but white is more preferable. And oh, did I forget to mention a white countach is the mother of all supercars?? Which reminds me, I heard from somewhere you managed to get a black Autoart Countach from ebay for a real deal, how about spilling the beans on that one now bro Big Grin

PS - Ashish aka Abacus gave me a call this Saturday and he told me about ur black countach. And another news, my Autoart Dodge Viper is on it's way Big Grin Big Grin

RE: 1:18 Audi R8
Hahaha! Thanks for making it public. Oh well!

Just got lucky on a used Countach- it'll need some TLC, but I paid a fraction of the price they usually go for. It's at my friends place in UASSS- hope to get it by mid or late August.

Congrats on the Viper. What color and from where you getting it?

RE: 1:18 Audi R8
Sid, I got the red with white stripes SRT-10 coupe Big Grin

Guggga, got it from Ashish aka Abacus who had imported few other exotics too. Had preordered the Viper with him. Yet to receive it though in my hands. Anxiously waiting for it Smile
