Title: My 87 Buick GN
Post by: flybynite on September 04, 2007, 09:27:27 AM
Here are some pics of my 87 Buick GN.  :icon_biggrin:  Several members have sent pm's and would like to see it. These pics are from spring of 07 and the car is in storage for now. I have not driven it since the spring autofair at Lowes Motor Speedway. Mileage is low and the value of these cars keep going up. The turbo has been upgraded along with the injectors. It does not take much to make these cars boogie.In the quarter mile it runs mid 11s with 18lbs of boost(with drag radials).Other than the turbo,injectors and the tune it's bone stock.Pics kinda suck, car is real dusty from sitting in the parking lot but these are all I have on this computer.

Yes, but Flybynite's is a Grand National. The One in the auction is a GNX...world of difference lol. I remember hearing once that the GNX was the only car from GM that, in the same model year, could whip a Corvette from the same year. I think ASC listed this as the fastest car they worked on. Can anyone verify that?

EDIT: By the way, flybynite that is a damn sexy car!!!!! There's one that always sits in the Holiday Inn lot near my place...so beautiful...

Wow, a 15K mile GN! Don't leave the doors unlocked, or I might have to borrow it from you seeing as how I'm only a state over. ;) A nice GN is on my "cars to own one day" list for sure...

If I won the lotto, which I never play, that would be one of the first things I would buy. 

GN, GNX, no matter to me, as long as it's a black Buick.  Those cars do something for me.
