Product Description

Maisto's 1:18 scale Special Edition Die-Cast line brilliantly bridges the gap between collectables and toys. These beautifully sculpted licensed vehicles have the remarkable detail that will astonish any hardcore die-cast collector, while still managing to incorporate the free-wheeling, play value of a children's toy. Each vehicle is made of high quality die-cast metal as well as plastic parts, and sports opening doors and hoods. Also complete with full function steering and four wheel suspension (adding to play value). The detail spans all the way from the detailed chassis to separate exhaust system.

This review is from: 1959 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz Pink Diecast Model 1:18 Die Cast Car (Toy)

A real 1959 Cadillac El Dorado Biarritz drop-top is a thing of beauty, and in original mint condition can price out at over $300,000.00, a bit more than most of us can afford for a car.

I remember these gorgeous cars on the road way back when. They were the ultimate expression of All-American Harley Earl auto design in the era when Detroit iron ruled the road. What was good for GM was good for the country. And it was true.

Fortunately, Maisto has created a die-cast 1:18 scale model in classic Fifties pink for the rest of us. It's an incredibly complete model too, from the rocket point dagmars on the grille to the 40-inch tailfins. It lacks a working convertible roof, but that is its only drawback. Otherwise, you'll wish you were The Incredible Shrinking Man so you could take it for a spin. What a dream!

If you are looking for the "Elvis" pink Caddy he bought his Mother this isn't it.

That was what my Father thought he wanted. Fortunately my Father isn't techno enough to use the internet.

This is the caddy both I and my brother bought him for xmas. Yes, we bought him the same thing. I also bought him the God-Father Caddy to boot. We had him open my pink Cadillac last. He was very happy to have two "Elvis" Cadillacs.

However, if you want the true Elvis "bought his Mother" Cadillac, that would be a 1956 pink Cadillac de ville, which Franklin Mint discontinued and now routinely sells for $150.00+

I used to subscribe to the Franklin Mint cars for my father $39.00 a month. I did find an off brand true Elvis Cadillac for less than $80.00 but it was also a discontinued brand.

Good Luck!
