About the Maserati Khamsin Red Minichamps 1:18
TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:18 resin Maserati Khamsin reproduces Marcello Gandini's wedge-shaped grand tourer for Bertone in red. Sealed resin construction favors the Khamsin's sharp creases and distinctive glass tail panel, capturing one of the last front-engined Maseratis before the De Tomaso era reshaped the brand.
Gandini's wedge shapes defined an entire era of Italian design, and the Khamsin's glass-paneled tail remains one of his most unusual solutions.
Resin Sharpness on Gandini's Wedge Lines
The Khamsin's low, sharply creased nose and distinctive full-width glass panel covering the rear lights and hydraulic components represent exactly the kind of hard-edged, flat-surfaced design resin construction reproduces with genuine confidence, holding crisp lines along every fold without the softening a diecast tool's draft angles sometimes introduce. Red paint against that glass tail panel creates real visual contrast, and the sealed resin body keeps the whole design's sharp geometry intact from every angle.
One of the Last Front-Engined Maseratis Before De Tomaso
Maserati built the Khamsin from 1974 through 1982, during which the company passed into De Tomaso's ownership and its lineup shifted decisively toward different priorities. The Khamsin represented one of the final expressions of Maserati's traditional front-engine grand touring formula, styled by Bertone during Gandini's most influential wedge-design period. For a collector tracing Maserati's design evolution, the Khamsin marks the point where that traditional formula was running out its final years before the brand's ownership and direction changed for good.
