GNX

Description

--Black with Black-Grey Velour interior and Black carpeting, 1,000 MILES FROM NEW!, Automatic, Time warp condition.

Car and Driver's April 1986 review began: "Corvette, get outa town. Mustang, Move over. Camaro, Keep your back to the wall at all times. The biggest, Baddest gun west of the Pecos is loose in the streets, And there's gonna be some shootin'…." C/D

Turbocharged, With 276 hp and 360 lb-ft of torque it could hit 60 mph in 4.9 seconds, And a quarter-mile time of 13.9 seconds, It was quicker than a contemporary Corvette, Most U.S.-market Ferraris and even the Lamborghini Countach.

Additionally, The body was stiffened, The rear suspension was redesigned (with a longitudinal torque bar and a lateral Panhard rod, Plus stiffer springs, Shocks, And stabilizer bars). The tires wire increased in size to 245/50VR-16 front and 255/50VR-16 rear. They were mounted on special aluminum wheels to better handle that torque and improve stability. A transmission oil cooler, composite fender flares, were also installed to handle the added power and larger wheels. Stewart-Warner analog gauges, Which included a tachometer, Oil pressure, Coolant temperature, And turbo boost) were mounted in a modified cluster. Functional front-fender louvers helped to lower under-hood temperatures. On the outside bold GNX badges on the grille, decklid, and wheel centers were so you know what you were up against; and each GNX got its own serial-number plaque on the passenger-side dashboard.

There were 547 1987 Buick GNX's produced and this one has only covered 380 miles since new. This GNX came to us through a good friend and collector and is in all original condition, It looks and drives just like the day it rolled off the assembly line in Detroit. The exterior is paint is in impeccable condition and the interior shows no wear what so ever.

It has been collector owned and serviced it's entire life, it has recently received a thorough service and 4 new tires to be ready for its next new home.

This GNX is well-known to us, having been sold by us and into its most recent California, celebrity ownership. It has been traded to Autosport Designs towards another automobile from our inventory, solely due to a change in the direction of the collection to vintage European automobiles.
