My GT7 Log: Know Your Legends - The Plymouth Superbird

Let's get to know about the legendary cars that are hard to get in Gran Turismo 7's Legend Cars not only because of their extreme rarity that appears once in a blue moon but also their outrageous price tag that takes almost forever to save one. Today, let's get to know about the Plymouth Superbird, an iconic stock car built for the road and track.


Despite calling it the twin car of the Dodge Charger Daytona, the Superbird is basically a Road Runner underneath because Plymouth never made a sibling car to the Dodge Charger. Both the Superbird and the Charger Daytona sported an extended nose and a massive rear wing but the shape of the roof is what separates these two models apart. Under the hood, the Plymouth Superbird can be fitted with either a 440 Super Commando, a 426 HEMI, or a 440 six-barrel engine. It is limited to 1000 units in order to comply with homologation regulations for stock car racing.



The Plymouth Superbird will have a one-lap, time attack around the Goodwood Motor Circuit. Let's find out how fast this is. Roll the tape.


It did it in 1:40.043, which is impressive for a stock car built for oval racing.

What other hard-to-get legendary cars should I drive next? Stay tuned for more.
