OMG! Cayman Coral and Honey Beige! Is this a prototype?
I am assuming it is since a piece of the side spear is missing, but boy, this will be my first NEO purchase! Cayman Coral and Honey Beige was one of my suggested and wishful hoping colors for a NEO re-issue!
It is beautiful. Any news on when this one will be available??
Michel, you just made my night and a big Impala fan (they don't call me "Impala Patty" for nothing) very, very happy with the news.
I applaud NEO for getting the new issue correct and picking a dynamic color choice!

Oooooh Patty!
That sure is a pretty color!

Great color and the last of the great 50's flash.

Pic: Chevy Ad, Cayman Coral Impala....
....It's a convertible, I know, but it's the same color. These ads were really off sometimes in the color, but the AE model is definitely Cayman Coral.
photo no longer available
Now, wouldn't it be sweet if the AE 58 convertible is a Sierra Gold Poly?? Sweet for sure.

It seems to be available for immediate delivery in Europe?
Here is the place where I found the 1958 Chevy, Patty.

I don't know where they are located probably in Germany?

Patty, it's actually Cay Coral, not Cayman Coral, and the contrasting color is Arctic White. The Honey Beige was only available with Anniversary Gold,
according to the Chevy color charts (google "1958 Chevrolet two-tones" for a
list).
I do agree that the Arctic White over Cay Coral, as shown in the '58 brochure
and on the color charts, will be a terrific combination. And NEO has shown us
that they do listen, and they have corrected the paint scheme on this model.
Like you, I'm a big fan of the Impala, (especially from '58 through about '66).

LOL, Rick, I must have the beautiful Cayman Islands on my mind....
....You are correct, of course. And you're right on the Arctic White, not Honey Beige.
It's beautiful and I would like to get one.

Patty, if it's as cold in Florida as it is here in Texas, I can understand why you'd have the Cayman Islands on your mind!

MCW has not shipped to North America in the past, although that could change.
It is owned by the American Excellence owner, Klaus Kiunke. So, be patient, it will eventually be available through a North American dealer.
