my friend just bought GNX #193.. STOLE it

[FlyinGN]

just got back. He got it from south Jersey. This owner got it from Ohio. 7000 miles. PERFECT condition. A stainless kirban exhaust was the only mod. It has the jacket, hat and book as well as ALL the paperwork. I believe it came from Atlanta originally. Owner paid 60k from a dealer in 87.. Perfect under and still smells new. it was at Kirbans last open house last summer.. heres pics.. stole it for $45k.. Twinvipers is gonna have a heart attack lol

Weren't they like $30K new in 87? Why would he have paid $60K?

 

[FlyinGN]

I guess it was the dealer markup??? Thats what the owner told us.. I dunno

Regular old gn's were going for over 35k at the end of 87'. Yes dealers made tons of money by marking gn's and gnx's up rediculous amounts of money. I guess if you really wanted one that bad then what the hell?

GNX markups

In our part of the country the GNX sticker was about 29k and
the dealer markup was 10K for a 39k price. GN's had no dealer
markup.

45 large is a pretty decent deal for a low mileage GNX.

South Jersey, huh? With the exception of Herb's GNX, most of them reside in Central and North Jersey.

I remember the local dealers at the time calling the GNX "Instant Classics" and yes, they were marking them up in the $60-75K range.
