I was surfing the net today and this is what I came upon. The link is an article on Edmunds.com about a GNX in Long Beach that was never sold after 22 years!! The car only has 144 miles and it states that they drive every now and then to keep it in running order. Has anyone else heard about this or has anyone seen it? It won't let me post the URl so if you would like it just send a PM.

Some of the people posting there are painfully clueless about GNX's.

A buddy of mine was doing HVAC around the DC/northern VA area at a Buick dealership in the early 90s. He went into a back room there was a GNX sitting in there with enough of the car cover pulled back to see the front emblem on the grille. At the time he was really into them. And at the time I could of cared less since I was into Chevy IIs. Now I wish I would of payed attention.
i iam from the los angeles area and a diesel tech....a while back i went to one of our suppliers where we buy reman turbos from while talking to him about turbos i asked if he ever rebuilt GN turbos he said he had done some through the years and started talking about a gnx that never sold that has been sitting in a local dealer showroom here locally(he mentioned name but i frgot) so its possible i dont have that kind of money but for some one who does it would be a nice purchase if such a thing was true !!!!!!:biggrin:

i'd hate to see what kind of condition all the belts and hoses are in.

My 1987 has 9000 miles and the belt and hoses are fine!
The fuel pump died sitting in the garage, and the AC compressor died idling in the driveway one afternoon. Another day the antenna quit working.
Other than a battery, it is original and runs great.

personally, i don't think any old car is worth more than $10k..I love the guy on that site saying its probably worth $35,000. 115 miles
but for some reason people pay the big bucks. more power to them.

that make two of us.
GNX #119 still sits on it's original showroom floor. I last saw it back in March when I was new car shopping. No evidence of "coffee cup rings" to be found on the hood or trunk lid.

The GNX does get a chance to do a few laps around the lot a couple times a year.

I did a little research on the GNX in the article it is at Boulevard Buick GMC Pontiac of Long Beach, CA. They actually have it visible on the showroom floor!!
