1987 Pontiac Firebird GTA 1/16 Revell

Plastic model kit, assembly required. Paint and glue are required for assembly and are sold separately.

"We Build Excitement" was one of Pontiac's most memorable ad campaigns, and judging by the look of the 1987 Firebird® GTA, it wasn't just a slogan. The GTA, new for '87, was the ultimate Firebird. The Pontiac stylists gave it a sleek, cleanly drawn body with a smooth front apron, a wrap-around rear spoiler and aero skirts on the underside of the car. Other features were the single-color exterior paintwork and the subtle GTA lettering on the front fenders.

Under the hood was a 5.7-liter V8 engine. It made 210 hp and had 315 lb-ft of torque. Other features included Pontiac's legendary WS6 handling package and 16-inch diamond-spoke alloy wheels. Revell designers created this now classic 1/16 scale kit of the '87 Firebird GTA when the car was new, but this is the first time the kit has been made available again in decades.
