Gotta love it when a guy who has been a member of the board for a little over a year "thinks" he knows something.
Nothing like running your mouth about a car you have never seen in person or know ANYTHING about but you can tell us what its worth
You have NO clue what rare is guy.. or anything about TRs in general by reading all your sad posts newbie. Go tell all the GNX owners how there cars prices are "way over infalted" in the GNX forums now please because you DONT have the money to buy one.
Go buy your "rare" car for 15k you "think" is a rare combo.. then the members here can post up how they have one just like it only with less miles and nicer.
Theres no need to defend the offers I have had on the car. Guys who have been board members for years and years can vouch for the car. Believe it or not theres just a little more substance to this car than its color but you wouldnt know anything about that.
Might be why its won the GS Nationals, BPG Nationals, Summit Racing Nationals, Buicks at Norwalk and Autorama all multiple times.. but you prob already knew that huh newb.
GNBRETT had you pegged right in this thread below..

now stop trolling. ur a dreamer, thats it. move on to ricer forums or something.
..well put!!
Wow! ALOT more of "I thinks" in there..
When you actually KNOW something about something make a post.. until then read, go to the Nationals, see what it takes to build a TR and learn something about what your running your mouth about.
15k for a REALLY nice MINT GNs??
Enough said..
First of all your car is NOT listed here for sale ,so i am not trolling,
second i looked it up + my "i thinks" were correct, It is called cream beige, according to another site,+ there is a light + dark brown color for these cars.If i'm not 100% then i will say i think or i'm not positive but... instead of saying something is definetly so + then being wrong.One thing i can Say with absolute certainty + that is your car is not in the $60K neighborhood.
+ yes a mint gn can be had for $15 k in the real world,not imaginary offer world.So your car is a restored car + not even a low mileage, unrestored orig. paint car.That just dropped it further down the value tree, was it a rusty car,is it #'s matching.all orig body panels, ever hit,clear title?
+ i have been in + out of these cars since 87 when i bought a gn new,+ bought 6 or seven in the maybe 10 yr period after that.but havn't had one in a while before the one i just bought recently.So don't say i'm a newbie to these cars.
As far as knowing what rare is,I know your's is one of 1035 limiteds,as i said before i think it's a beautiful car, I also know alot of people won't own one because of the column shift,+ because i owned one yrs ago i know the regular t-type buckets are more comfy then the pillow seats.
Having said that, i like the limiteds because they are diff, + can't say I wouldn't buy 1 because of the column shift,but it really turns me off of the cars along with many other people,i know this because when i sold mine i had a hard time because of the bench seat column auto.but i would buy the right one despite of it.
Even tho it has nice options,+ a color you don't see often,( not a great color),one that is only interesting because people don't see it often.It is still just a turbo regal,same as all the others,just diff color + options.No more no less,yes it's in great shape ,at least in the pics.but that doesn't put into the stratosphere in value.+ it doesn't matter what you have into it,Thats not what it's worth.
And you can't say i don't know rare,Because i have owned many,rare cars,+ they wern't just rare because of an unattractive color.
The last rare car i bought was the 1st ls1 ss 6 spd convertible ever built vin was 100036, look at how many ss's were built in mystic teal metallic,for all yrs they were built,+ you will see there was just 1, that one was mine that wasn't because of an unpopular color,it was because slp couldn't match the paint when they put on the hoods,spoilers etc. (By the way mystic teal metallic is a kind of flip flop color that turns from blue to green to purple in diff lights,(A special color)not an olive drab color that nobody wanted.) Not only was it the only one ever built in this color," but was also a pre production, pilot car," built for some reason over the course of two weeks,instead of the usual few hours.AND it was the top model ,a very rare 6 spd convertible,AND not just any 6 spd convert. but the very 1st ever built.All documented by chevy.+ was suposed to be destroyed with all the other pilot cars,but was not for some reason.
I'm not going over every car i've owned, but i'll give you another example,
I owned the 1st 440 six pack convertible ever built,and it was also the 1st 70 440-6 car built.
It was a 1 of seven,1970 coronet r/t convertible,+ this was a track pack,pistol grip 4 spd car with,dana 354 rear( I don't know if mine was counted in those 7) because it also was a pre production pilot car,vin 100004, another paint issue car,it was slated to be b5 blue ,but was painted white because it was to be used in the parts catalog,which was in black + white, white cars photo the best in black + white,It was then used as a chrysler show circuit car,then ended up in the hands of a chrysler big wig who sold it to the man i bought it from.the car can be seen in the 1970 b body parts catalog + also in the muscle car greats book that was put out by Muscle Cars magazine, a few yrs back.Its on page 33 its a centerfold across 2 pages,it is red now.+ in one of the biggest collections in the U.S., Hey maybe if you call him he will put your car in there too.NOT
I have owned the top models from every make + every type of muscle car from the sixties + seventies,stage 1's,w-30's,hemi's,6-packs,428 cj'converts, + some 60's tuner cars like nickey + motion camaro's, grand spalding dodges, etc. I even just thought of a super rare 1981 yenko turbo camaro,i had it was a white stage 2 car ( 1 of 3 stage 2 cars) The 1st car i ever owned was a 1 of 1 , 6 pack challenger. so to say i don't know rare, is about as wrong as you can get.
Yours is just a turbo regal with a scarce color(,because nobody wanted that on their turbo car,) it doesn't make it some new incredibly rare + valuable vehicle.it's still just a turbo regal ,with an uncommon color.NOT A GNX which has alot of extra value because of its'rarity + a bunch of performance parts ,+ was bought that way out of the showroom.
Your car is very nice + it is what it is,not what you are trying to make it out to be.
BY the way the car i was talking about is in hemmings motor news,it is a 1 OWNER,UNRESTORED,50k ORIGINAL MILE,ORIGINAL PAINT,ROSEWOOD,LIMITED,WITH A WHITE VINYL ROOF+ WHITE SIDE MOLDINGS ,+ MAROON INTERIOR.TWILIGHT SENTINEL,ETC. HE ALSO HAS THE ORIG WINDOW STICKER,+ OTHER DOCS.
A strange side note is he has orig docs. showing the orig dealership,stained the roof a dif color, when new. hard to say what i would do,because both colors could now be considered original,but it still has the orig white side moldings, so i'm thinking i would go back to white when a roof was needed.
for looks + the window sticker says white also.
I think a very odd combo,with the white top + side moldingson a dark rosewood color. maybe 1 of 1?
Ps the price is $16500 not $65000,I'd get their quick before the phantom buyers offer him,$70K or so,or to trade their gnx's for it.
