4. 1978 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am

The 1978 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am heralded a fresh special edition in the line. This pivotal year saw the introduction of the exceptional Firebird Formula LT Sport Edition. It boasted a robust Chevy 305 V8 engine, perfectly paired with a four-speed manual T-10 BW transmission.

This edition could be ordered in an LT trim, the esteemed limited touring edition, brimming with a wealth of amenities. It also flaunted a plethora of aesthetics options, including the luxurious gold spokes and a gold dash face with the vibrant Red Bird option.

3. 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona

This model was masterfully crafted in a limited edition, strategically designed to dominate NASCAR races following past setbacks. Dodge triumphantly hit its mark as this car clinched victory at the Talladega 500 soon after its debut.

This iteration dramatically breached the 200 mph barrier at the race, marking the start of an illustrious stint on the racetrack. Its successor, the 29170 Plymouth Superbird, continued this legacy by sweeping victories at the racetrack the following year.
