About the Pininfarina Mythos Red Revell 1:18

TL;DR: Revell's 1:18 diecast Pininfarina Mythos in red reproduces the 1989 concept built on Ferrari Testarossa mechanicals, a design exercise that never went into production. A distinctive coachbuilder subject for a concept-car display.

Some of the most interesting shapes in automotive history never reached a showroom. The Mythos is one of them, a Pininfarina flight of fancy built to explore ideas rather than sell cars.

A Concept Shape Without a Production Reference

Building a diecast of a one-off concept means working entirely from show-car photography, since there was never a dealer showroom example to measure against. This model reproduces the Mythos's dramatically low nose, hidden headlights, and wedge-shaped profile, the design language Pininfarina was exploring across several concepts in this period. The red finish suits the aggressive, almost aircraft-like lines, and Revell's diecast construction gives the body a reassuring weight that plastic display models of the same concept usually lack. It is a faithful small-scale record of a car most people only ever saw in magazines.

Pininfarina's Design Experimentation

Built on Ferrari Testarossa mechanicals but wearing entirely original bodywork, the Mythos let Pininfarina test styling ideas without the constraints of a production program, exactly the freedom coachbuilders have traditionally used concept cars to claim. It never advanced beyond its show-circuit life, which makes any physical reproduction, including this diecast, a rare way to hold onto a design that otherwise exists only in period photographs and motor show memories. For a collector interested in Italian design history rather than production Ferraris alone, the Mythos fills a gap few other models can.
