Anybody can give me an opinion on this model? When has is been issued and which color looks the best?
They are exquisite! I have both of them and to be honest, I love it in both colors. I can't pick a favorite between them. My database has them being issued in December 2019.

I too have the green along with a black one from Conquest...both are outstanding IMO.
I see whatcha all mean! Here are some good photos of both: https://www.hobbydb.com/marketplaces/hobbydb/catalog_items?filters%5Btype_id%5D=3&variant_definition_id=88901
@jcarnutz I didn't realize that they'd been out that long, John! As for which one is best, I think that's a personal preference. I got the light green because it just seems right for the car. I also wanted the one with the sun visor, skirts, and contrasting wheels. And as a rule I am not a big fan of red cars. In hindsight, I wish I had gotten both for the contrast between them. Now I'm looking forward to the '60 Pontiac Safaris, and don't intend to make the same mistake again....
I have both colors and like them both very much; however I give the nod to the green version for the skirts, visor and contrasting wheels.
I also took the Genesse Green Poly one. Unfortunately it is was not painted in poly (metallic). Still, it looks right. The Rio Red one is painted in a solid color as it should be. I have them both.
@nickies The Pontiac is No. GC-034A (I have the green too). The first Goldvarg, GC-001, the 1958 Ford Fairlane hardtop appeared in either very late 2017, or very early 2018.
"First" may be relative, since GC-002 1956 Mercury Montclair convertible and GC-003 1961 Ford Country Squire wagon, appeared at the same time.
Interesting to note is how the popularity of the Goldvarg range has grown. Note that the '58 Ford was an LE of 150. The recent '57 Pontiac 4-door in coral is an LE of 310.
