So, History Channel yesterday had a pair of '85's getting a mild makeover for some crossover series they're doing to lure in automotive fans and younger viewers, and in doing so reminded me of just how much I loved this car.

Yes, I know I'm not alone on this one, but yeah, this thread's about discussion of the GN, posting pictures, drooling, etc.

Do you happen to know the spec differences between the GNX version and the standard Grand National? Is the GNX just running more boost?

Yeah, I'd really like to have one of these someday.

Hmm... so the block is untouched, it's just a turbo and exhaust issue. Gibs, your friend is indeed a moron.:)

I wouldnt want one (ugly, and handle like a boat) but they are fast and very respectable. Good sleepers and Yes gibson, your friend is a moron. Why didnt he just buy a regal and paint it black.... what a Dumbass.
