About the Audi R8 GT Type 42 Ice Silver Metallic Kyosho 1:18

TL;DR: Kyosho's 1:18 diecast reproduces the Audi R8 GT Type 42, a 2010 limited-production, weight-reduced version of the first R8 generation with more power from its 5.2-liter V10. Finished in Ice Silver Metallic, it targets collectors seeking the performance variant rather than the standard R8 already common on most shelves.

The base R8 shows up often enough in diecast form; the GT variant, built in far smaller numbers, is harder to find and worth the extra attention.

Why the GT Variant Matters More Than the Standard R8

Audi built the R8 GT as a send-off for the first-generation car, stripping weight through extended carbon-fiber body panels and interior trim while extracting more output from the naturally aspirated V10. It sold in limited numbers alongside the standard R8 range, aimed at buyers who wanted the sharper, track-focused end of the lineup rather than the everyday supercar most people picture. For a collection already holding a standard R8, the GT adds genuine differentiation rather than a repeated silhouette, the kind of variant depth that separates a curated Audi display from a basic one.

Kyosho's Approach to This Subject

Kyosho builds this R8 GT in diecast, giving the model real weight and the typically opening doors and hood the segment allows, with the Ice Silver Metallic finish laid over the car's more aggressive splitter and wing details that distinguish it from the base car. Fine details in the intake and rear diffuser area hold up under close inspection, a reasonable expectation from a manufacturer known for careful licensed reproductions. Set beside a standard R8 in a display, the differences in aero and stance become the whole story, which is exactly what a variant piece like this should deliver.
