Ravi, for your collection, only the Kyosho will do. The HWE is a nice model but the Kyosho has the X factor to it, besides the pop up lights that actually pop up. It will be hard to find a road version for a good price though. The Lightweight version is more commonly available on Ebay.

If you can't dazzle them with brillance, baffle them with bullshit.

Winston said it right, go for the Kyosho version but as he also said, the Kyosho street version is hard to find, the more easily available one is the light-weight version with the black rims. If I were getting the Kyosho F40, I would hunt for the normal street version.

My favorite post on SMC "I wait for the day when you go ballistic while buying models after you get your first job. I think I would be seeing KV & the Modelart guys bursting fire crackers all day." (quote Winston)

Kyosho F40 street version is by-far the toughest t find. I currently have a HW Foundation F40, HWE F40LM and a Kyosho F40 Lightweight. Alll are red, and the LM will be sold when I'll get a plain-body version, since the current one is liveried

Collecting diecasts is like eating Pistachios.
You can never stop after the first one :)

I guess this is a old thread but thanks for help.

I picked the Kyosho regular version of F40 after wards they launched the hi -end.
