1987 Pontiac Firebird GTA
Scale: 1:16
Skill: 5
We Build Excitement was one of Pontiacs most-memorable advertising campaigns and going by the looks of the 1987 Firebird® GTA it wasn’t just a throwaway line. New for ‘87, the GTA was the ultimate Firebird. Pontiacs stylists dressed it in a sleek, cleanly detailed body that featured a smooth front fascia, a wrap-around rear spoiler, and aero skirts around the bottom edge of the car. Other features included monochromatic exterior paint and subtle GTA badging on the front fenders.
Under the hood was a 5.7-liter (350 cubic-inch) V-8 engine topped off with tuned-port fuel injection. It was good for 210 horsepower, along with 315 lb-ft of torque. Other performance hardware included Pontiacs legendary WS6 handling package and 16-inch diamond-spoke alloy wheels. Revells 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 its been available in decades.
