Looking for a cheap GNX?

The whole "9 miles" thing is intriguing.

[Heat Seeker WS6]

Holy crap... but would be perfect as a museum piece.

[BadAzzGTA89]

Man that is an awsome car :)
But how no one drives it is nuts:rolleyes:

[pOrk]

What a bunch of homos, I'd drive the **** out of that car

[Goat Roper]

Wish they put a pic of the window sticker up, look slike it has everything else still on it

[lasttimearound]

i would never have the patience for that. just seeing it would make me want to beat the piss out of it

Look at the top right of that photo, on the window. It looks like that is the original paper work :rolf

[Brandon W.]

that car is worth ALOT of money.it is worth 120k to the right collector.

[pOrk]

I'd buy it just to start it on fire in front of the tool that bought it in the first place

Lets go halfs on it :rolf :rolf

[Philly-O]

i wonder what kind of driving condition it is in, such as tires, belts, hoses, engine internals. that is a long time to let a car sit, but a really cool car though.

[Car Guy]

Actually I don't think it was driven at all except for off the transporter and on to the trailer of the person that bought it.....

[SNKSKNR]

Been there done that! You can't do anything with it! My dad had one for 6 years and all it did is sit.

[BadAzzGTA89]

Cars are made to drive AMEN!:thumbsup

[WilliamZ]

That's a damn nice car, but I would rather spend $30,XXX and have one that I would drive daily in the summer..

Tolken buick on 27th got a GNX in when I was at the A&W. We high tailed it over to see them unload it. Old man Tolkan was out there when we showed. Told them to roll it off the truck, get the floor jacks and rags (didn't want to scratch it!) and get it inside. He then turned to us and said "Unless you kids plan to buy something, get off my lot"

I assume the car is still owned by them... I think it was a pretty low number car also.

What an A$$HOLE.....Well hes dead now anyway.:flipoff2:

[KillerTA]

Never even registered!!!! You guys are looking at it all wrong. If you had millions of $$ you wouldn't be worried about driving that, you'd have plenty of other cars to drive.

[97z2801ss]

that is sweet

[Slow Joe]

That's awesome... Similar to the 67'??? Camaro at the Aloha show with 19 miles on it that they were doing a full restoration on... I would be one of those people that would want to drive the car though... So something like that wouldn't work for me...

[SlowStee]

yeha I know...was a funny thought though :D

[RyanM]

What a nice car. I could never let a car like that sit for 20 years.

[Brandon W.]

What a nice car. I could never let a car like that sit for 20 years.


really?? i could. here is what i would do..


lets say that Dodge was going to release a car and they would only make 500 of them.if i was to get ahold of one (New) iwould drive it home and park it. never tobe moved again. i would once a week start it and let it run for an hour.. once a yeariwould change the oil.. and i would jack it up and move the tires a bit to make sure it didnt get flat spots.. id hold on to it for like 30 years or so.. now your say lets say 60 years old... 30 years has passed and the car that they made only 500 of is down to like 300 give or take. can you imagine the money that you could make.. you could make 100K + for something that you bought for 30K-40K...it would be a very smart investment i think that this guy is very smart

lmao, id bet the guy be like:flipoff2: id be like :headbang
lol

sweet car though, i dont know if i would drive it, if i kept the car and didnt drive it for almost 20 years i dont think i could just wakeup 1 day and say, fu*k it, im drivin the gnx.

Oh yeah, no kidding, without a doubt. If I had the money sitting around I would buy two.... but if you think about it, say the car is 30k, you hold it for 30 years... the storage costs would be pretty high, making sure everything goes right, and keeping up work on it, for an extra 100k 30 years later? Break 100 grand down over 30 years, thats only about 3k a year... for a POSSIBLE win... I dont think I would ever let it go if I held a car for 30 years.

My grandma built a house about 40 years ago, for $16,000 w/ the property, and today its worth over $300,000... a home is a much better investment than a car, to be honest.

I want to get my hands on another GP (GTX/GTP, or Pacecar-GTP/X) but they are so hard to find in perfect condition with low(er) miles... especially the 2dr's

I had a hell of a time finding mine!

Oh, well its 1am and I am just blabbing on here, so I mise well hit submit reply and see how it turns out without previewing it :thumbsup

Similar situations are not rare...

My boss's mother has a first gen Camaro convertable which has rarely been moved in the past 20+ years. The miles are low and the condition is pristene. According to the guy, someone offered them $1,500 a few years ago for just the window sticker. He is not car-savy, so all i heard from him was that it was the 'big engine' and he used it for his senior prom.

Apparently, his mother will not part with it and it does not see the road that often. She does like to talk about model railroading though.

Also came across another nice one that I wouldnt mind owning either :)

You know what would happen, after you would have the car for 20+ plus years your garage would start on fire and your insurance would pay you crap for it.. Thats the luck I have..

[Waver]

If I were to buy it I would drive it...I cant justify spending money on anything and not using it. I mean if a guy who I met this past july drives his Saleen ranger (1 of 7 that exhists) every day in the summer, knowing that if it gets hit he cant fix it, then I can drive a GNX on the weekends

[CruxGNZ]

...a home is a much better investment than a car, to be honest.
One of the many things that are. Some just don't understand that after seeing the Barrett Jackson auction though.

[68RR440]

Yet you bring back a post that was sitting for nearly 3 months? :goof

[Waver]

Holy shit, I didnt see that it was that old.....

Wow, I didnt either. Sorry,

Dont know how I got here :alcoholic

im with you. even if you leave on the plastic and get a sweaty ass you still gotta drive it
