1987 Buick GNX 100K

[Pat]

That's miles.

A former neighbor wants to sell his 1987 Buick GN (turbo) for north of 10K.
The car is running OK and is in one piece. This could be a good deal for someone who can wrench on cars and wants to put some money and effort into a once fabulous muscle car

The Buick regal sites, GN/GNX/T-type, put the cars value much higher.

PM me if interested and I'll put you in contact with the owner/seller.

Car is in Bossier City, La.

Exactly, and here it is, i was thinking deal of a lifetime, some beach.

Thank God!! The thought of someone getting a GNX(!) for around $10k, and that person not being me, was making me ill.

[Mike M]

Why was it listed as a GNX? I was about to buy a airline ticket.

Weird, I would have been happy for you :shake:



:lol:

[MOTOWN]

If it was a GNX the asking price would be 100K easy! i have a true weakness for these cars!

My thinking exactly...I was gonna clear a credit card if it was a GNX!!!

Not an X. People just call them that because they still really don't know what they are even 28 years later. Had a guy at my shop say nice Monte Carlo you got there. Ugh, its a Buick lol.

[Pat]

Sorry guys about the misreporting. I had seen and touched the car a few months back but I didn't think much about it. Last night Loren's sister in law came by and asked if I was interested in the car. She thought it was a GNX. I didn't verify.
But when I went on line to price check, the GNX goes for 42 to 100K. I said wow Loren only wants 10K? Then I find that he did a lot of work, 12K, on the car since I last saw it. Double WOW.

Anyway, it's a GN, they go for 17-30K. So it's still a WOW. What tightens my jaws is that my S/C'd 2004 MM only lists for 9.2/9.6K according to KBB W/O SC. same mileage.

Regards,

92 thousand to 96 thousand? WOW, I wonder what my Marauder is worth.

[Curless]

Cra is worht about $8000 or so...its not that rare being a T-top and it does need work...who put the battery in the middle of the trunk??? Some people's kids...

[MyO4Rawdur]

That thing has been through a battle lol id say about 7000 max. Needs too much physically

I think Pat was missing the point. Decimal point that is! :D

[tbone]

I had an 87 Regal V6. I had plans to put a built V8 in that car and all the fixin's. Got stolen in 1992. The frame turned up on the south side of Chicago about 30 days later.....

[Trevor M]

No, you can't have it


YES HE CAN HAVE IT! Cause that means I will be able to go for a ride in a REAL GNX! Get it Jerry, get it!

[Trevor M]

Damn....just saw that its not an X. effffffffff

Thats actually not a bad deal at all if its the real deal!

[Mebot]

How come these GNX fetch such a high value? Are they that rare?

Is there a possibility of Marauder's getting that kind of value in 20 years.

Or is this an apples/oranges argument?

The GNX was a little over 500 produced! a totally different suspension, Turbo, Intercooler, wheel/tires, etc.

This car was beyond rare and sold for $28,900 brand new in 1987! i was in the 10th grade and feening for one of these rides, just couldnt afford it at that time:depress:

And yes its totally an apples to oranges comparison, Marauders will never come close to the value on a GNX.

[Curless]

547 to be exact! Numbered dash, grill, wheels and tires, rear suspension were all GNX only. For years you could not "clone" one due to the fact that GM would not sell any of the parts unless you could document that you owned the real deal. One of the fastest 1/4 mile cars ever produced in this country, grossly under rated at 245 hp and 360 lbs/ft of torque........drool....:bows:: bows:

[lji372]

Had to go see one today after this thread
37653

Was that a real GNX?

[lji372]

:dunno: plate said 1987gnx had port holes, wheel flares, 029 on the dash over the glove box.

Wasn't the prettiest one that's for sure

Sorry you had a bad experience. Sounds like you got a lemon. Mine has been wonderful so far. As well as my Dads, and the other's I have daily driven over the years.

Just the nature of the beast not a reflection on GM as a whole, i had 3 of them, and no major issues out of any, other me building them into total beast!:banana:

[Baaad GN]

Wow surprizing all the gn experts on here! Oh that frame was left on the south sides cause I didn't need it! LOL

[8UWITH6]

These cars suffer sometimes because people buy them expecting to throw parts and them and go fast immediately. They dont work that way. Trust me I have had 3 and worked on many. They are very sensitive to a number of tuning variables. It took a lot of work and a lot of trial and error but after 2 or 3 years I got the combination on my car perfect. From there once the tune up was set when I added parts it responded. For those of you that know these cars know when they run right they run VERY well. I went 120mph in the 1/4 through the factory stock exhaust elbow (unheard of). Too many times over the years I have seen people buy them, mod them, get frustrated, and sell them. Happens all too often.

I seen one in Miami in perfect condition for under 10 grand
