Solid LiftersI really have no idea what the problem is. I love this car, too... ...I'm responding to your incorrect claim that the GNX had a 4.7 second 0-60 time. It was proven to be incorrect, yet possible of a tuned GNX, which was the case of the GNX that Car and Driver, among other magazines, tested for their magazine articles. I also provided proof that you were incorrect about the real acceleration time of the GNX, and supported what I said to be as true, and factual.
Very true statements. Here in the US, we have long straight roads. There is no need for a good suspension unless you go to the track.cudadude2Euro always complain about the handling of American cars. Theres a reason why American cars are the way they are and why Europian cars are the way they are. American roads are big long and strait. If the American car was small lightweight with small light engines like a Euro, you would not have an ideal situation. Cars are creatures of their environment, anyone whose studied Darwin will recogize this. Euro roads are small tight and curvy ergo euro cars are small and light and nimble. Also US cars are way cheaper for their size than Euro cars. Not saying witch is better, they are both suited to what they do. b
Nice list. Has pics to go along with the cars.PROXIMAIt should be in. This here is the best list on the net check the link.

gn4lifeSorry if I come off as being to agressive, I just don't understand why you keep saying I'm wrong when I have been the owner and in the turbo buick game for all of my life. This includes gnxs, grand nationals, t-types, turbo-ts, and the 89 turbo trans ams (which can be faster stock then the gnx and needs to be in gt5) . Believe half of what you see and none of what you read. Just cause you go to a search engine type something in then copy and paste the information about it doesn't mean you know every stock performance aspect of the car. I.e. go look up the 1/4 mile times for a stock 1987 buick grand national. I bet you will find times in the low to high 14s, even some 15s, with no instances of them running high 13s. If this "web" info is so true and binding, how come my gn (when it was stock) as well as countless other bone stock gns, tires and all have run day time ets in the 13.8s or better. Or is that not possible because a website told me it couldn't.
Solid LiftersOK, so I should forget what I've read about the car when I was a teenager, pay no atention to what I've heard from GNX owners, and completeltly ignore the info at not one, but several GNX websites to believe what you, a guy who made a stupid thread at GTP, say about the car?
That's not a fair or accurate statement. I don't know everything about cars, but I know enough about the GNX since I do love the car, and have read everything about it in articles over the past 18 years of its life. I think this was an immature statement made by you because you feel that you are correct, and can't accept another persons opinion.gn4lifethanks for the info lambo 88.
This guy obviosly knows nothing about cars and the very conditional 0-60sec test (espcially on turbo cars).
I did listen, and I don't agree with you because there is so much evidence that disproves your claims. Evidence created by people who have a lot more credibility than you.I tried to give him some first hand info but he just won't listen. But he is entitled to beleive whatever info he wants to just don't call others who know more wrong.
I have ridden in gnxs and know a couple of gnx owners who have agreed with me as well. I even helped turn two grand nationals into identical gnx clones. I almost purchased 2 gnxs in my liftime but always at the last second someone has swiped them from under me. But then again I probably just don't like this guy cause he is pro bush.
kinigittI am literally surrounded by them in my little town near Montreal. They all like american iron here and there are at least 7 gran nationals, 3 of them original GNX models. Gorgeous in a macho, intimidating way and fast as all hell, at least in a straight line. They can also be tuned for handling just like any sportscar; check this out: g machines
One of my favourite cars of all time. So menacing.
I wouldn't say balls, but a lack of good judgment.kinigittmust have had some balls to do that to a collector car.
Solid LiftersI wouldn't say balls, but a lack of good judgment.

Yeah if Darth Vader had that car, that would be it.CivicbusDamn striaght it's menacing! Coincidentally, if Darth Vader drove a car, you KNOW it'd be a GNX and that doods as manacing as you get!
98cobraYeah if Darth Vader had that car, that would be it.
Accually, I have an ad hanging in my garage from my old car. Its a 1995 Impala SS ad and it says," Lord Vader, your car is ready."CivicbusDamn striaght it's menacing! Coincidentally, if Darth Vader drove a car, you KNOW it'd be a GNX and that doods as manacing as you get!
