Glad to be able to help-- that's what GNXRegistry.ORG is here for. Per your note this morning, Registry form is on its way too.

Congratulations again. Now get yourself some sleep, man...

Congrats on your purchase...sure looks like a nice one!

What type of tires are on the car? Those are the first set of tires that look 'fitting' on the car other than stock GoodYears!

Also...your front air dams appear to be missing the bolts to secure it near the flare...might want to secure them to prevent them from getting damaged.

I can read Good Year on the tires, kinda looks like a modern day Gatorback?

Nice find. Looks like GNX prices aren't immune to this economy after all.

I've been shopping around for a while waiting for something like this to pop up. Never thought it would be a GNX! I was in the market for a low mile GN and if you've been paying attention to prices, they have come down and a lot has to do with the individual selling the car. Thanks!
