[Closed] Pics. Cadillac 1959's commercial chassis. A perfect nonsense from NEO.

Thanks, J-P for your detailed description. I will pass on this model.

Junk

Pics to compare the model offered by Motor City

I agree with your comparison entirely. However to be fair,

Neo is on the lower end of the price spectrum i.e.:compared to the more accurate Matrix, GLM and Automodello .Lets not forget the old adage "you get what you pay for".

This one looks beautiful. I'll pass on the others.

Far far far better !

Absolutely right Ken, but on the other side too,

Let's not forget that NEO is supposed to be on the top manufacturers. They are supposed to be accurate. They also used to be. There are a lot of examples since a few months now where we can see very good and decent models for 20-45 dollars. Just remember the latest Greenlight's Cadillac fleetwood 60S 1955, PremiumX's Eldorado 1956, De Agostino's Coupe deVille 1966 , Whitebox's 1939 limousine.... etc etc...all very well executed for their price range and quality, and you knew what you'd paid for.

So no, I can't accept those 75-90 dollars Cadillacs from NEO without disagree.
Like their latest silver 1966 limousine with a terrible banana shape...When was the last time NEO made a real nice Cadillac ?... I can't recall. The 1933 Phaetons were ok...but still was missing an important detail such as the trim surrounding the entire model, from the lower body panels to the wheel arches...

I am fed up with these fake models. Fed up with the lack of research, rigour or precision. It's not that complicated at least to open a book nowadays, with the hundreds or thousands of available documents, pictures, brochures...
I don't like the spirit of MCW, owner of NEO now, for whom making money and copies seems more important that making excellent models. Making money is fine but not to the detriment of models and aware customers. Same thing with BoS models, brand of MCW, copying Matrix's Cadillacs...

A manufacturer that is trying to release a new and expensive model and fail to do it properly for many reasons will still have my respect compares to someone who simply copy someone else.

Believe me when I say that I would love to love those Cadillacs...or to have real good words for NEO. Let's hope they won't disappoint me with the 1962 hearse or the 1957 Eldorado brougham...but I doubt about it.

Gorgeous Jacques! That's why these go for big bucks...
