Birthday Year Supercars

[XXX-1.8T]

Thought i'd buy 2 Kyosho Supercar models one for me and one for Miltiadi each from our years we were born in (1980 and 2008.)

I bought a 2008 White Audi R8 (white like my old A3) and late 70's Yellow Lamborghini LP400 (yellow like the TT). I was born in 1980 although this was the closest one as the other Countaches had the ugly spoilers from 1983+. This one keeps all the classical lines.

The white Audi R8 was a pain to get as they sell out so quick. The Lambo was even harder to get as they stopped making them in yellow back in 2001 although i tracked down a NOS one.

I posted the pics as i love the details of both Kyosho models:

Audi R8





Highly detailed interior even has carpet!



Engine bay again is very detailed:



Nice little touch is the retractable spoiler works as well which suprised me!

Lamborghini LP400 Countach





Love the detail of the washer bottle and the spare wheel compartment



Interior is exactly like the real thing!



V12 Lambo engine bay



Lights go up, lights go down!

Old super car vs New Super car





Growing up in the 80's people either had Lambo's, Ferraris, or Porsche posters growing up. I wonder what the future holds for Miltiadi in terms of car posters

Wow! Beautiful quality and attention to detail. I love the R8! I want a model of a mk 4 r32 in blue like my car. I'm on the hunt.
