I always thought the R8 models out on the market looked kinda flat. This changes things a little. Very nice!

Pretty sure you are in really good relationships with your Audi dealer and you can buy DE models for good prices.
But here's quite a fair deal on this.

Saw that one. Still a little too pricy for me based on Kyosho's execution on this particular model.

I have this one, pretty good model. But qualitywise, the first editions were better executed. Like many kyosho's lately, quality control is pretty much absent on these. I had the luck of choosing between a couple of them and there was only one which didn't have great issues, guess which one I chose :)

Yup, my review of the hobby edition will mention various issues for anyone who is interested:
