Ferrari F40 Red Metallic Asia Exclusive Kyosho 1:18
Ferrari F40 Red Metallic Asia Exclusive Kyosho 1:18

1/14
Kyosho's 1:18 diecast Ferrari F40 reproduces Enzo Ferrari's final personally approved supercar in a Red Metallic Asia Exclusive finish, a colourway rarely seen outside that regional release. Sharp, low proportions and the F40's signature rear wing capture a car built for speed above all else. A striking alternative to the standard Rosso Corsa F40 diecast for a Ferrari supercar shelf.
About the Ferrari F40 Red Metallic Asia Exclusive Kyosho 1:18
TL;DR: Kyosho's 1:18 diecast Ferrari F40 reproduces the 1987 twin-turbo supercar in a Red Metallic Asia Exclusive finish, distinct from the familiar Rosso Corsa colourway most F40 diecast wears. Built around the F40's low, wedge-shaped proportions and signature rear wing, it gives collectors a rarer alternative colour on Enzo Ferrari's last approved car.
Most F40 diecast arrives in the same red most people picture, which is exactly why a regional exclusive colourway earns a second look from a serious collector.
A Red Metallic Departure From the Familiar F40
Metallic red reads very differently under light than the flat Rosso Corsa most F40 models wear, with a visible flake that shifts tone across the car's compound curves rather than presenting one uniform shade. Kyosho holds that metallic finish consistently across the F40's low nose, wide sills and rear wing supports, panels that would show any inconsistency immediately given how much surface area they cover. This Asia Exclusive release is the sort of variant that a collector who already owns a standard-colour F40 diecast might specifically seek out, since the underlying tooling captures the same car while the finish itself is the point of difference.
The Twin-Turbo V8 and Ferrari's Last Word From Enzo
The F40 arrived in 1987 as the last Ferrari road car personally approved by Enzo Ferrari before his death, built around a 2.9-litre twin-turbocharged V8 and a bodyshell that prioritised weight reduction over comfort at every turn. It became widely known as the first production car to exceed 200mph, a genuine engineering achievement for its era rather than a marketing claim, and that single-minded focus on speed shows in the model's proportions: a low, flat nose, minimal overhangs and a rear wing sized for function rather than styling. Checking the F40's signature Lexan-style rear window slats and NACA ducts against the real car is a quick way to judge how seriously a given diecast has taken the subject.
Where a Regional Exclusive Fits in a Ferrari Collection
Standing beside a standard-colour F40, this Asia Exclusive version demonstrates how much a finish alone can change the character of an otherwise identical casting, useful context for any collector weighing whether a colour variant is worth adding alongside the original. At around 22 centimetres in 1:18, it takes the same shelf footprint as any other supercar of the period, so the decision comes down entirely to whether the metallic red earns its place next to Ferrari's more familiar Rosso Corsa F40s. For a shelf built around Ferrari's late-1980s output, it is a legitimate and distinctive addition rather than a duplicate.
