Red Bull X2010 1:18 Scale Models to be Produced by AUTOart

AUTOart, the scale model company known for its detailed replicas, will be producing a 1:18 scale version of Gran Turismo 5’s Red Bull X2010, as announced by Polyphony Digital.

Both the “S. Vettel” and Carbon Prototype versions of the car will be made available, including an accurately reproduced cockpit which opens and closes. Pricing and availability information is not yet available, though the hand-built prototype models you see here were on display at last week’s Tokyo Game Show 2012.

This actually isn’t the first time a scale model of the X2010 has been created. As some readers may recall, a private hobbyist built his own 1:43 scale replica of the car and sold it on eBay.

AUTOart has, of course, a long history of working with Polyphony Digital, and just recently launched new replicas of GT5’s Stealth Model cars in July.

    Ill definitely be getting both versions of this. I already have the 787B, GTR and McLaren stealths. Just need auto art to do the SLS, Audi and the X2011 now

    haha this is funny.. I’m sure a LOT of kids would tell their dad buy this for em or maybe some adults that are noobs and trolls in gt5 online. Like seriously, I have this and got the Vettel done but i’ve never thought of using it after that race.. Kaz is funny of making this but really only noobs use them and think they have a FAST car. this car is BS lol. Real GT enthusiasts will never buy this I promise everyone. ;)

      Your opinion is not fact, nor do you have the right to shell out personal attacks against thousands of people just because you do not like a car. I regularly host X2011/X2010 matches and most of the time I get pretty clean races. Not everyone is a “noob” or “troll” because they like using the car.

      Gamerdog has been exposed! Nah seriously… imho only noobs use these cars or would earnestly set up “clean” races for them. I disagree with marktyper only in that I think “Real GT” enthusiasts would be interested in every car that PD has created or Auto art has produced in this form. Hence the word “enthusiast”.

      Just because he did not say the word “fact” does not, in any way, mean that he wasn’t stating it as if it was the truth. I respect personal opinions, unless someone is being a jerk and smashing other people about it. There was no reason for him to say it like that.

    I don’t know if I want it or not… On one hand its GT history, on the other hand, its a car I hate to drive and see driven.

      It was annoying driving it with a DFGT, but I love how it looks. If I had the money and interest in these models, I wouldn’t need to think twice about buying it. If money were an issue…

    If it costs a stupid amount again then no way Jose, I ain ‘t paying that much for a car that’s never raced in the real world. They seem to charge as much as or more then for a Le Mans diecast.

      OH!

      Btw, I wrote that before reading the other comment that mentioned “GT history”. It was a unique thought :)
