About the BMW 507 Cabriolet Silver Revell 1:18

TL;DR: Revell's 1:18 diecast BMW 507 Cabriolet in silver reproduces the low-production roadster styled by Albrecht von Goertz, one of BMW's most celebrated post-war designs. Diecast construction with opening doors and bonnet suits the model's accessible price point. A genuinely elegant subject built in very small numbers originally.

Fewer than a few hundred BMW 507s were ever built, and Revell's silver 1:18 diecast brings Albrecht von Goertz's genuinely elegant roadster design to a shelf most collectors could never fill with an original.

Revell's Diecast Approach to a Low-Volume Roadster

Silver suits the 507's long, low bonnet and simple, unadorned flanks particularly well, letting Goertz's clean surfacing read without a bright colour competing for attention, and Revell's casting holds an even metallic finish across those flat panels. Doors and bonnet open on the simple diecast hinges typical of Revell's price tier, giving access to a simplified but recognisable cabin and engine bay. Panel gaps run wider than a premium resin alternative would allow, an honest trade-off for keeping this genuinely elegant subject within reach of a mainstream diecast budget rather than a limited hand-built run.

Goertz's Design and the 507's Small Production Run

Industrial designer Albrecht von Goertz penned the 507's low, uncluttered roadster body for BMW's post-war revival, a design so respected that its long bonnet and simple grille treatment influenced the brand's styling language for years afterward. BMW built the car in genuinely small numbers, a production run that never approached profitability, which makes the 507's design legacy far larger than its commercial one. Elvis Presley famously owned a 507 during his time stationed in Germany, a piece of celebrity provenance that has followed the model ever since.

A Low-Production Original Made Accessible

This 507 suits a shelf built around German roadster design or BMW's post-war history, a genuinely low-production original made ordinary-collector accessible through Revell's diecast.
