ok someone tried to tell me that the GN wasnt introduced as a "collector" or limited edition vehicle and theyre only rare because the general public didnt take too well to the idea of the V6.in fact heres exactly what he said taken from a local car forum im on......
and this after i tried to tell him they werent in high production numbers because theyre more of a collector type car,kinda like the SRT-4 and the STi of today.....They are extremely high maintence cars which is unfortuntaly, one of the main reasons they didn't sell well at all. Remember.. it's a GM vehicle after all. The guy that sold me my car raced a 11 second grand national. he sold me my car because he couldn't handle two unreliable turbo vehicles. He still wanted a convertible and went out and bought a olds'
so whos right here?thanks for your help!!anyways, the GN from what I've seen in ads and stuff wasn't promoted as a collectors car.. not as if the SRT-4 is either. lol. The T-Type and GN sold poorly, it wasn't like they wanted to make a very small number of them. The concept just didn't catch on people were still wanting domestic v8's and the thought of a super high output v6 didnt' seem to work well.
A lot of people I've talked to had no clue it was the US's fastest production car for every year it was made. That's if they even had heard of it.
