The Gran Turismo Series features 8 different models that first showed up in Europe retail stores in April 2016. In the United States the series was a "Hobby Exclusive", meaning none of the big box retail stores were able to order them. The first US-based cases appeared in late May of 2016. Some of the models first appeared in Gran Turismo 5 while the rest appeared in its successor, Gran Turismo 6. The Jaguar XJ220, first appeared in its racing-modified form in the original PlayStation-exclusive Gran Turismo 2.
