I have noticed that most of the new highly detailed 1/64 scale models such as those offered by GFCC, etc. are European, Japanese or Italian exotics. Not that many American cars and most of them are muscle cars (such as MiniGT Mustangs), Cadillacs or Lincolns. Well, here's another Cadillac that is being offered as a  pre order: a 1985 Cadillac Seville by a company called Turning Crush (I wonder where they come up with some of these names!).It is available in two colors Black or brown. Detail appears to be pretty good.Price appears quite reasonable at just over $25.US.

These close-up pics look fantastic, but the wheels and those crazy truck straps are, well, not so great....

BTW: I suspect "turning crush"  connotes something along the lines of "gotta love it."

@chris I was thinking the same thing about the trunk straps.Where did they ever come up with the idea that there were trunk straps on a '85 Seville. I've never seen anything like that even as an after market add on.

@chris.I stand corrected. After completing a search on the net, I found out the trunk straps on a 1985 Seville were a dealer option.Who would have guessed.

@kenspear It was definitely a dealer option, and the fidelity of Turning Crush's  straps are terrific, IMO, but ....um....  These Sevilles do NOT need luggage straps - they look hideous.    I can't imagine Dealerships sold many of them.
