From Ryan D -SC - has around 10 GMMG's & counting

I saw your post on the registry about your favorite GMMGs and thought I'd do a list also. I didn't realize after I started my list how hard it was to choose my top 3 from each edition. I like every car ever built by GMMG so it actually took me longer than I thought. I tend to like the higher HP cars (As I'm sure most other people do also) and my favorite color is probably NBM and love the Hockey stripes on any series. I also like any of the Houndstooth interior options also. All that being said, here is my list. Feel free to put on your spreadsheet and post if you'd like. THANKS! I enjoyed looking through the registry to choose my favorites!

TOP 3 FAVORITES
1. HRE 1986. 454/680. NBM w/ white Hockey stripes

I just did a basic top 10 without dividing into the different categories.

1. DH # 18 (Organic green could quite possibly be the single best color sprayed on a vehicle)
2. DH #23 (Just because it's the only DH car i've seen in person)
3. DH #PR1 (Out of this world color)
4. CETABB #7 (454 ci? whats not to like?)
5. Berger #72 (Again another out of this world color)
6. ZL-1 #41
7. ZL-1 #20 (Would be higher on the list but it's not t-tops)
8. GMMG BB # 38
9. TH # 22
10. TH # 28 (Would probably be #9 if it had t-tops)
