The AMX was introduced to the press at the Daytona International Speedway on 15 February 1968, just over four months after the Javelin went on sale. The manufacturer's suggested retail price was US$3,245, nearly 25 percent below and over $1,000 less than the Corvette's price tag. In January 1968 two specially prepared AMXs set 106 world speed and endurance records at Goodyear's track in Texas, driven by Craig Breedlove, his wife Lee and Ron Dykes. The 1968 models also included an innovative fiberglass safety padding.
