E55 AMG Diecast Model

1/18th scale 1999 spec. E55 AMG diecast metal model. The base model is SunStar's E320, which was hand crafted to become the E55 AMG. (Conversion done at my home vs. the orchard town of Affalterbach.)

Talking that looks really impressive

however if one wanted to get truly picky, you would have to change the wood trim to dark birds eye maple rather than burl

Interior wood trim

Yes, you are right, the wood should be black birds eye maple. But I took some creative liberty here, and felt that lighter wood would provide better contrast to the black dash. Think of it as special order designo natural maple. AMG will allow any custom interior if done at their factory.

Cool conversion, correct wood trim and hood alignment would be critical for this cast model to sell.
