Frankly, I would like to see some 80s cars. More exactly. An 85 Fiero GT wouldn't be bad. Maybe some Buick Skylarks would look nice. Any thoughts? :thumbsup:

Cougars would be good.

I'd love to see them produce cars that aren't available from every other company - I can get Camaros, Mustangs, GTO's, Impallas, Corvettes from any diecast company. Obviously, they have to establish a brand and make money before they do things like an AMC Marlin, but given the quality of the cars they make and the lack of competition with regards to some castings, it seems like they would have a market.

Volkswagens would be good to now that at think about it. Some old VW Bus. Haven't see any real good versions of those done in a while.

Rumor has it that Motormax is doing the Fiero (along with a Chevette and Vega).

I'd like to see a 69-70 Chevelle, or a 73-74 Roadrunner..

How about the late 70s anti-muscle cars. The Hornet AMX, Mustang II King Cobra (with the right front end), the Skyhawk Roadhawk, the Aspen Charger and the Sunbird Formula. They were all colorful cars, that we saw everyday back then, and they would stand out nicely on a shelf now. Maybe the Pinto Cruising Wagon with the porthole, and the Vega wagon.

'68 Vista Cruiser

I love that car....I love all the GM versions. I also love the Studebaker wagon that has the rear top that can open and close like a bread box (Waggonier maybe?)

The car I hated the most when my dad bought them is now a segment I really love. When I go to car shows now, I go out of my way to find distinctive wagons. My favorite newish car is the Buick woody wagon (Roadmaster) with the Corvette engine.

I know, I need help.;)

Something completely different: The Great American Luxury Car, in both 1/64 and 1/24.

Series I would include:

1969 to 1971 Lincoln Continental MK III
1967 to 1970 Cadillac Eldorado
1964 to 1966 Imperial Coupe and Convertible
1969 to 1970 Pontiac Grand Prix
1969 to 1970 Cadillac Coupe de Ville
1976 to 1978 Chrysler New Yorker Brougham

I don't know about anyone else, but I've been musclecar'd to death.

It would be real cool if they did what JL is trying to do right now with putting things like 1/64 scale gas pumps with cars. Except do it a little better. Match a pump with a year. Like 50s and 60s cars matched with thier appropriate pumps. That would be pretty cool. maybe with a pile of tires our metal gas and oil containers from the era. Just throw'en the idea out there.

I'm liking that rumor. I hope the Chevette is the later '80s version. :thumbsup:

As for Greenlight:

Make everything. I won't mind buying cars I already have in "1/64" scale if all Greenlights will truly be 1/64 in scale, relative to one another. Small Gremlins, large Impalas. Just like the current Impala dwarfs the Mustangs and Camaro. If you can do that, I'll be a loyal customer for years to come. :thumbsup:

Speaking of cars that are not available how about, you guessed it, Galaxies. 59, 60, 61, 62, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69. Who else is doing those???? :thumbsup:
