Auto World Cadillac Eldorado: 1967 Crystal Firemist vs 1975 Firethorn Red

Auto World 1975 Cadillac Eldorado in Firethorn Red Metallic with a dark red rear roof section

Choose the 1967 Eldorado for its Crystal Firemist Metallic finish and green cabin, or the 1975 Eldorado for Firethorn Red Metallic with a contrasting dark red rear roof section. These Auto World Luxury Cruisers are different represented model years, not two colors of a single Eldorado release.

1967: prioritize the complete body-and-interior combination

The 1967 model, 64502-AWSP185B, explicitly identifies a green interior. That is useful when matching a particular car or building a collection where cabin colors matter as much as exterior paint.

The model is listed at approximately 3.375 inches long, with an opening hood, rubber tires and a diecast metal body and chassis. Opening doors are not specified, so do not select it expecting to expose the cabin that way.

1975: the roof treatment is part of the choice

The 1975 model, 64352-AWSP098B, pairs Firethorn Red Metallic with a matte dark red rear roof section. This description is more specific than simply calling it a red Cadillac.

Choose it when the later Eldorado year or that body-and-roof combination is the missing subject on your shelf. The roof treatment does not establish a removable roof, convertible mechanism or real upholstery material.

Its listing also specifies an opening hood, rubber tires and diecast metal body and chassis. The approximate length is 3.5 inches.

Plan room for a longer 1:64 car

Both Eldorados are longer than many smaller 1:64 subjects. A display slot that accommodates a compact 2.625-inch car cannot automatically be assumed suitable for either Cadillac.

Use the compartment's clear internal length, then check width and height separately. A case's exterior dimensions are not its usable interior, and an open hood requires additional headroom. Measure the unopened backing card instead when choosing a protector for a carded display.

One favorite year or a two-year comparison?

A collector recreating a remembered Cadillac should prioritize the correct year and finish. A pair can show two different Eldorado subjects, but it is not a boxed two-car set: the links are separate offers.

The 1967 Crystal Firemist car also appears in the listed 2025 Release 1 Set B assortment. That option only makes sense when the other vehicles are wanted. The 1975 listing's 14,910-piece edition figure is a release quantity, not a count remaining at the store.
