I liked this model enough that I also bought the two tone green one as well.

Nice pics Geno.  This is a very well done model for the price IMHO.  I'm not a sedan model collector per se but I just had to have the Elvis version.

Quite a duo...loving the pics.  I never pulled the trigger on these. Not a fan of the pink 4-dr Caddy and put off by the brown interior of the black Caddy.

I'm also the same as you John.  I do have the Elvis Caddy, but if I could go back in time, I'd not have bought it.  Just too cheesy looking for my taste.  And when I was working at the FM store for fun and giggles back in the late 1990's, I passed on the FM Black Caddy for not only the brown interior, but also because at the time we were having quality issues with it.  Had some returns for various reasons, so I passed on it.  As for the Green two-tone, neither color drew me to it.  I think the Greens made a regal car look cheap.  My opinion of course.

@georgeschire Yeah, the brown leather interior is different. The real Godfather Caddy also had it.😊

For me, Brown just doesn't compliment Black on this car.  But hey Geno, your photos are awesome!

I have the FM 2 tone green but agree the black is more stately. Nice pair Geno.

I always enjoy hearing what tickles fellow collectors fancy.  We all have different interests.
