Hey all. I got this nice looking Maisto R8 from Costco for $12. What a steal since most online stores sell them above $28 plus shipping, not worth it. You couldn't believe how shocked I was when I saw a stack of Maistos sitting there and inside that stack was this Audi R8. Enough talk, on to the pictures.

What do you guys think?

nice looks alot better now! hoping to this with my R8 if i can get one. How does the wing go up? Mind taking a picture if theres a button?

^ You have to pull it up, I used a small flat-head to get the wing up. I'm planning on applying some CF decal later on to enhance it a bit more and maybe some more paint application.

Oh my word, I would simply love a car like that, goodness me it makes my legs feel like jelly, lol! I want, I want, I want!:runaround:

Here some better pictures. I applied some CF Decal on the side "wings" of the R8, which are CF panels behind the doors.
