The 1980s grand touring coupe was a breed apart. Powerful enough to exhilarate, refined enough to impress, and exclusive enough to signal something special. These cars were built for long journeys at speed, combining elegant proportions with advanced engineering.
Now, that spirit has been captured in brick form. The MOC 1980 German Luxury Coupe Building Blocks Set by Pingubricks brings this grand touring icon to your collection. With 1,473 pieces and a finished size of 32.2 x 16.1 x 8.4 cm, it is both a rewarding build and a striking display piece.
Original 1980s German GT Coupe Design
This set is inspired by one of the most celebrated grand touring coupes of the 1980s. Its long hood, sloping roofline, and pillarless silhouette defined the era's design language. Under the surface, a front engine, rear wheel drive layout with a straight six engine delivered smooth, effortless power. Over 86,000 examples were built between the mid 1970s and late 1980s. Today these cars are among the most sought after collectibles of their time.
