今天在DZ看到由GMP老闆提供的有趣資料,想不到最受歡迎的竟然是Fast and Furious里出現過的1987年Buick GNX,難看死了,果然美國人的口味跟我們很不一樣。

當然最暢銷未必就等於是最經典和最好看的款式,這個Top 10排行榜就是個很好的例子。

只要看看現在的GMP二手市場就知道那些往往天價成交的通常是限量1500內的車模。根據我的觀察,最搶手的還是那些最經典的68-70美式肌肉如Camaro、GTO、GTX、Road
Runner還有Chevelle。

10. GMP part number 7624 with total production run of 4200 is the #2 STP Vintage Dirt Champ driven by Mario Andretti. This was the fourth release in the GMP Dirt Champ Series, and probably one of the most recognizable with its awesome orange paint job!

9. Another Dirt Champ makes the list. GMP part number 7622 with total production run of 4260 is the #2 Sheraton Thompson Vintage Dirt champ driven by AJ Foyt. This was the second release in the Dirt Champ Series and an instant hit! We did quite a few of AJ’s cars over the years including vintage sprints, midgets, and gt40s. He was one of Tom Long’s all time favorite drivers.

8. The first muscle car on the list. GMP part number 8022 with total production run of 4464 is the 1968 Grumpy’s Toy V Drag Nova. This was the second Nova ever produced by GMP, and met with instant success as it pre-sold out.

7. TIE: with production totals of 4500: GMP part number 8081, 1967 Ford Fairlane 390 GT in Candy Apple Red, and GMP part number G1804101, #6 Ferrari 330P4.

The Fairlane was GMP’s first ever Fairlane to be produced, and was met with great anticipation from the collector. GMP designers put all they had into the development of this model, even implementing working window cranks! This was an excellent model, and would have been perfect if not for some faulty packaging that caused several rear windows to arrive cracked.

The #6 Ferrari 330P4 was a groundbreaking model for GMP. It was the model that would take us to the next level, and it didn’t disappoint. Over 800 parts were used to bring this Masterpiece together, and everyone took notice!

6. TIE: Total production for these iconic racers sits at 5000. GMP parts numbers 14101 and 13021. The 14101 is the Pierson Brothers Salt Flat Coupe. Opening hood, doors (with functional handles of course), and trunk revealed every detail you could imagine.

Tied with The Pierson is one of the most famous road racers in history. The #36 1967 Penske Sunoco Trans Am Camaro driven by Mark Donohue. This would be the first Camaro ever produced by GMP, and the response was incredible.

5. GMP part number 14001 with a total production run of 5004. This is our first vintage rail dragster! The Swamp Rat I driven by “Big Daddy” Don Garlits. This was an awesome kick-off to a great line of vintage dragsters that would come from GMP.

4. GMP part number 8005 with a production of 5196: GMP’s Black 1986 Buick Grand National. Let me start off by saying something about Buick guys…… I have to say it would be very hard for anyone to find such a diehard group of enthusiasts! This was the fifth Buick we released, and we didn’t make enough! We probably could have made 7000.

3. TIE: GMP part numbers 14002 and 14003 with production totals of 5904. Here we are again with “Big Daddy” Don Garlits. His Swamp Rat 1B and Swamp Rat III follow in the footsteps of the Swamp Rat I as the second and third dragsters produced by GMP, and they did not disappoint. They were both sold out before arriving at our doors!

2. GMP part number 14004 with total production of 6000. The Yellow Greer Black and Prudhomme front engine dragster. This was the fourth vintage dragster we released, and we all assumed that after the success of the Swamp Rats that things might drop off a little. Yet the orders kept coming and coming and coming until finally we had to make a decision on where to stop.

1. Drum roll please!!!! The number one GMP seller of all time with a staggering total production run of 8547 is the BLACK 1987 BUICK GNX. This was the third Buick release, and after over 3500 ’87 GNs and 4500 ’86 T-types had already sold, we dumb Georgia boys slowly started to realize there was something to this Buick craze we had been told about. The whole GMP team did a great job bringing this project to fruition!
