About the Ford Taunus 17M P2 Blue Revell 1:18

TL;DR: Revell's 1:18 diecast Ford Taunus 17M P2 in blue reproduces the German-built sedan nicknamed the Baroque Taunus for its sweeping, ornamental 1950s styling. It represents Ford's separate German design tradition, distinct from anything the company built in America during the same period.

Ford's German division styled its own path through the 1950s, and the Taunus 17M P2 pushed that independence into genuinely theatrical territory.

A German Ford With Its Own Design Language

Ford of Germany built the 17M P2 with rounded, heavily sculpted bodywork so ornate that German enthusiasts nicknamed it the Baroque Taunus, a reference to the elaborate architectural style rather than any actual German baroque building. That exaggerated curvature stood apart from the more restrained American Fords of the same era, reflecting how far Ford's German operation had developed its own design identity by the late 1950s. The 17M name referenced its engine displacement, keeping the Taunus firmly positioned as a mid-range family sedan despite its dramatic exterior.

Revell's Diecast Coverage of a German Design Curiosity

Revell's diecast catalog frequently favors German subjects overlooked by international manufacturers, and this Taunus benefits from that focus, its blue paint highlighting the sculpted fenders and rounded greenhouse that define the P2's Baroque nickname. Diecast construction gives the sedan the solid weight its substantial-looking bodywork implies. Set alongside more conventional 1950s American sedans, this Taunus makes an immediate visual case for how differently Ford's global divisions once approached the same basic brief.
