About the Honda RA272 #11 R. Ginther Mexican Grand Prix 1965 AUTOart 1:18

TL;DR: AUTOart's 1:18 diecast Honda RA272 #11 reproduces Richie Ginther's car from the 1965 Mexican Grand Prix, Honda's first Formula 1 win as a constructor. Opening panels show the V12 engine. This is a used example, box showing traces of storage. The starting point of Honda's entire F1 story.

Honda entered Formula 1 as an outsider in the mid-1960s, and Ginther's Mexico City win in this car marked the moment the manufacturer proved it belonged in the sport's top tier.

AUTOart's Detail on Honda's First F1 Winner

The RA272's narrow, era-correct bodywork is rendered with tight, accurate lines on the zinc alloy chassis, and the number 11 livery holds sharp, legible edges. Opening panels expose the compact V12 engine that powered Honda's early F1 effort, a genuinely unusual choice for the period and one worth displaying openly rather than sealing away. The model carries a satisfying weight despite the slender, open-wheel silhouette. This is a used example, and the box shows traces of storage while the casting itself remains in good condition.

Where Honda's Racing Story Begins

Every subsequent Honda F1 chapter, from the turbo era to modern hybrid power units, traces back to this single result. Set alongside later Honda-powered cars, the RA272 provides the origin point for that entire lineage, and its historical weight makes it a genuinely important piece for any Japanese motorsport collection.
