Excellent Miles. I was unaware of this model.

I'm looking for (but it's NOT available) a 1/18 ATS Coupe. Sedans are plentiful but no 1/18 Coupe was ever tooled up.

I love this (yours) though. This is the concept on which new and future Cadillacs are based. Not a fan the of the "inverted 7" tail lights but they look better on this concept.

...thanks for sharing/posting Miles

Cadillac

I got it thru Ebay for $157 including shipping. Doors close with a click and no gaps. Paint is perfect and the detailed wheels have Caddy emblems on hubs. No painted chrome.Interior has many small detail pieces. The roof has full length sun roof. 3 piece luggage is included. I'm very pleased with it and think it's worth the price. Detail is at least like Autoart 1959 Cadillac. I can't find who makes these.

I know Kyosho manufactured several of these late model Cadillacs; I own a few.

Cadillac Escala

I purchased one as well. It came from China in 3 days at the same price. $130 +$39.99 shipping. I was very impressed with the quality of he model, the shipping and packaging.
Funny, my model has the base nameplate in, what looks like stainless, while yours looks like woodgrain.
Absolutely the best bang for the buck in a long time!
There is a CT6 as well, but in the photos I have seen, the driver door paint looks off with the rest of the car.
I have mounted mine in a BBR showcase with a Cadillac emblem.
Would sure like to know the manufacturer....photo no longer available

Chris you're right ,

It could be made by Kyosho. I have a few of their late model Cadillacs too.

(PICS) My Cadillac CT6 looks good all the way around. Not a bad model overall.

(PIC) I wish they'd release a 2-dr ATS. I really don't want to modify a sedan. I'd love to .....

...replicate mine in 1/18.

Beautiful Cadillac model ! It is also great to see Cadillac continuing to get back to full-size rear-wheel drive, V-8 powered cars, after really dropping the ball a lot in many of their cars since the '96 Fleetwoods.

The delay in getting back to this style and layout unfortunately may have cost them many sales.
