Audi A8

I've been waiting for this model for a while now, and now I finally got it! As usual, Kyosho has done a very nice job on both interior and exterior details (engine details, rims, dashboard, seats, etc)and the overall feel of this model is top notch in quality! I highly recommend everyone to get this if you haven't already done so, it would fit into anyone's collection nicely. It is a MUST for any Audi collector! Enjoy the pics...

Re: Audi A8

Yea!!! Mine is on it's way and can't wait!!! The only think I'm still not clear on is, this is just a SUPER DUPER A8 and not A8L right?

Re: Audi A8

yup, you are correct. This is just A8 and not A8L. Actually I don't think they even make a distinction between the two cuz there is not any A8L in 1/18. I could be wrong though....

Re: Audi A8

@diecasfan isn't this the dealer edition? umm diecast fan your pics don't really seem to capture the essence of the car for some reason. i think it's cuz you took the pics next to the window and the car's paint is really glossy so all i see are reflections.

No, this is just the regular edition. I got it (for only $55) instead of dealer edition because there isn't much difference (only box, tag are different I think) between the two and its quite a bit cheaper than the DE. As for the pic quality, yeah I did have problems with lighting and indeed these aren't great and there are a lot of reflections. I'll take more (and hopefully better)pics and will post them later.

Are you talking about real cars now? I'm not so sure. Anyway, A8L or not, all I know is..... it won't make much difference on a 1/18! hehe

some more pics...
