One I had to have to complete my "last of the Cadillac cars" set. Not sure how much longer Cadillac will be producing cars, the CT6 was phased out a few years ago but NOW I have all three: CT4, CT5 & CT6.
NOTE: I do have a top-of-line Sony digital.... the more I see just how bad my pics are (and oh, that dust!!) ..the more I think I should be using it. 🤔 🤨 🤔
Anyway... this 1/18 CT4 is very nice. Good shut lines, nice finish (even if color-matching is a bit off) and decent detail. A few things like the rear seats and the windshield mounted camera/sensor proved to be all but impossible to shoot (...with my poor skills. Rich would have NO problem 😎 ).
I love trunks, this one is great and it includes that right-side "pocket." The cup holders fooled me. Until I saw my pics, I thought they were "drilled down."
Well, for all who care (too modern & boring for some I know..) here it is:
You know, it's funny.... just a few years ago, "dark wheels" did NOTHING for me either. I must admit, the more I see them on the road NOW, the more I like them (especially when they're shinny black). Love them or hate them however, I'm glad to have them represented in my collection.
Very nice replica ! I was happy to see Cadillac get back to more RWD (or AWD) cars for performance or other advantages. This looks like a fine representation and I would like it even if it were a static model done in resin or diecast.
Q: We know Ford offered dark rims on these Mustangs, but did they offer a silver version (like yours)? 🤔 🤨 🤔
Ford offers 2 sets of rims & both are dark, the base set & the carbon fiber rims, as part of the Carbon Fiber Track Pack...which is the version Maisto modeled.
Great looking CT4, @chris. Really like the color. Wonder if they'll do the Blackwing version?

Thanks Gavin for the info on the Mustang rims. Thanks also for the "Caddy compliments." Yes, a Blackwing CT4 (or even CT5) would be great to see, but I doubt we ever will. ☹️
Yes, so would I Steve. I have a "better than average" collection of 1/18 Cadillacs but NO resin jobs (..which sadly, would fill in the gaps). But yes, I'd love too see some specific 1/18 diecast Cadillacs: ATS Coupe, 1960-1962, 1957, 1971... and PLEASE a 1967 Cadillac Sedan de Ville!
