GNX question

I just discovered this site,, and i dident know these cars were so rare, I know a friend who has one of these sitting in his driveway, interior shot, and just sitting, he says it still runs great and has a leak in one of the hoses on the turbo,

He doesent know there value, and i think this one has a good bit of millage on it, How much are they worth?

If in fact it is a true GNX (there are a ton of clones out there) and depending on how rough it is & how many miles, I would guess mid-$20k range for this one. They typically go for $40k on up (I have seen pristine single-digit-mileage ones go for well over $120k), but usually people that have a car like this take care of it so as far as I know none of the $40k ones had led a life as rough as your friend's car. What GNX number is it?

post a pic of it.......people on this site will be able to tell you if its real or a clone... no offense, but my bet is.. clone....the owner surely would know what it is and that its rare.....if its real
