Don't know any specifics, I just rang them up asking how many series 2 EF Ghias were made with the V8. They said they didn't have any figures to hand so I sent them an email and they replied with the figures you see above...

It's a bit hard to make V8 fairmont ghia wagons when they didn't even make Fairmont Ghia wagons in the first place isn't it?

1996 GLi sedans total = 20
1996 GLI wagons total = 10
1997 GLi sedans total = 102
1997 GLi wagons total = 36
In 1996 + 1997 it was a total of 122 for GLi sedans
In 1996 + 1997 it was a total of 46 GLi wagons



Now when I got my wagon I thought it was nice to have a v8 wagon, but according to those numbers above I think it alot better then just nice to have a matching numbers 1996 EL GLi v8 wagon
