I was following this auction a while ago and just got back to it today.
Makes me want to do harm to myself for not purchasing a few of them when
they were current.

I'll bet something like that goes through Barrett-Jackson and does alot better the $109,000

Though it looks odd without tinted windows.......all the GNXs I've seen came with factory tint.

I wonder how many the government still owns.
Very nice looking car. But... I prefer the Cutlass lines over the regal.

The government bought a a few of these as F.B.I vehicles. Or i could be mistaken, and they just bought the Grand Nationals.

Nope they bought something like 53 of them

I am the proud owner of a 87 GN W/ 34,000 on the clock and runs 27#'s of boost W/ the aid of Alky injection and runs mid 10's in the 1/4 and still gets 24MPH. GREAT CAR

So....did they purchase G.N.'s or G.N.X.'s??
Lucky guys that get to use these as pursuit vehicles!! Too cool.

Those cars must be either off line now or sitting in some garage somewhere.
May be worth chasing down...............

Not sure if there was any GNX's but I do know they bought some T TYPES

There where 3 Turbo Buicks offered GN's GNX's and T Types, the FBI bought the T's

Dont forget the Turbo T, WE4, and a regular Limited could be had with a turbo 6.;)

Got mine with 25,000 bone stock and love it! Coolest car of the 80's hands down! The LeSabre came with a turbo 6 also...

Yeah but those front wheel drive t-type riv's are pretty cool. They actually had a decent set of gears (3.42). There very sought after for the few people who want performance from there Riv, Tornado or eldorado. Ive personally seen a tornado with a 403 pull high 12's pretty funny.

Definetly one of the coolest muscle cars of all times.In 1987 my freind in high school got one as a graduation gift.I drove it the first day he got it.It was pleasure and I am greatfull for him to have let me share the experience.It was all stock of corse and was still the coolest ride I knew of in 1987.

My freinds parents were loaded.They also owned a new Vette,Transam and a Benz.Their boat was a Velocity 22 with a built small block chevy.

His parents were the coolest I've ever known.:D
