This one is an older release from Matrix Models, being issued in 2014. A very nice model of a car that just hasn't been done by anyone then or since. In the 80s, these cars were everywhere and after the dramatically downsized sedans that GM 1st issued in 1977, the sedans of the 80s just seemed to work better and had a nicer overall look. Another little feature of this model is that it has the Diesel Engine option.

1980 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royale 4dr Sedan, LE #258 of 408 in Dark Brown Firemist w/a Cream Vinyl Top.

Excellent looking model John.  Matrix perfectly captured that "GM look"  so prevalent in the late 1970's & early '80's.

That is an exceptionally nice Matrix Oldsmobile 1/43 replica from that era. Our family had 350 cid gasoline-powered Olds 98 from this same generation.
