[@ImpactedWizDom]

I was the proud owner of the very first Grand National (ordered it from my local Buick dealer 6-8 months prior immediately after I read an article about it in Motor Trend) sold in the greater Ft. Lauderdale area where I resided at the time in 1986. That car war simply, magnificent. It was the perfect blend of comfort, luxury, performance and sportiness in one beautiful package. Also, the sound system was fantastic! Mine had the optional Delco GM Bose Concert Sound ll system with cassette player. It was by far the best sounding system I’d ever heard, factory or otherwise. Quiet, smooth idle, smooth ride and it got really great gas mileage too! Until that is, you decided to nail it....literally all hell broke loose! The first time I did it, it burned the tires hard as soon as it hit second gear causing a full sideways slide all the way through a long corner I had entered....really wasn’t expecting that but man, was I a happy boy! I’d had several super fast cars by the time I purchased this one including my 10 second 70 Nova SS which I owned at the same time, that was my weekend warrior, but I’d never owned a car that was an all around mesh of near perfection for a daily driver.. I would like to make a couple of points regarding the content in the video. The owner of the car stated that when the cars were sent to ASC Mclaren to become GNX’s, they “installed” an intercooler...that’s incorrect as the regular GN’s were already intercooled, (fun fact: Buick offered the Regal in T-Type trim with a turbocharged V6 from 1978-1985. The birth of the monster wasn’t until the introduction of the GN in 1986 with the addition of a large intercooler. That enhancement is what was largely responsible for the enormous performance gain from one to the other) ASC installed an intercooler with a larger cooling capacity is what they did, as well as other mods like larger turbo, special racing style gauges and a pan hard bar in the rear suspension. Additionally both Jay and the other fellow were referencing the Corvette as the main competition for the GN at the time but in reality, the 5.0 Mustangs were the hot ticket during those days ‘85-87. Let there be no question as I can tell you from experience, the GN and the GNX which came along soon after, were in fact the fastest production cars of their kind on the street in those days. I literally ate 5.0 Mustangs and Corvettes alike all day long in street races....no contest at all. And that best part was all that from a little V6! Used to freak out lots of those hot rodders that I spanked when they found out what was under the hood! Lol. Sure wish I could turn the clock back to those times...some of the best of my life. Thanks for reading!

[@trevorrisley5419]

Great information, Robbie. Thanks for Sharon.

[@AimForTheBushes908]

This was a great read Robbie, thanks for sharing. It was hard to imagine a 10 second street Nova in the mid 80s, must have been a crazy ride.

[@BigAlWillis]

many of my friends had the 5.0. The GN were faster on the roll like 25/30 mph because the turbo kicked in best. off the line depending on who was driving the mustang. They were side by side. mustangs were little better low end off the line.

[@ImpactedWizDom]

@@AimForTheBushes908 Yes sir, it was indeed a crazy ride. It was running a professionally built 427 small block stroker motor making nearly 600 hp at the crank along with a 150hp shot nitrous system plumbed directly into each individual runner on the intake. Let’s just say that I freaked out loads of guys in their 100+ thousand dollar hot rods in heads up street challenges where they were handily beaten by my little innocent looking Nova. Great times!

[@bizcotch]

[@dmc5291]

When you have millions of dollars you can look at vehicles like that as “just a car”. To the average person it’s a Mortgage on 4 wheels.

[@rager1969]

@@dmc5291 I'd argue the average person probably wouldn't (or shouldn't) be buying collector cars in the first place. The real question is whether a collector car should be driven, not as a daily driver, but once in a while. Do you side with Ferris or Cameron's dad on that question? Keep in mind, Cameron killed that Ferrari, not Ferris.

It was a dream of mine to own an '87 GN some day. That time finally came around in the mid 90's when I was actually able to afford two GNs. I had one fully restored which ran low 11's in the 1/4. The other was kept bone stock as a daily driver. I kept them for about four years until I ran in to some money problems and I had to sell them both. I swear, I think I loved them cars more than my ex-wife at the time. lol Not a day doesn't go by that I don't think about my GNs. Can't say that about my ex-wife. lol

[@jamesh4839]

Richiec77 the syclone was developed with the 3.8

[@-thebatman-]

James H but never mass produced with it the grand national was developed with an n/a v6 that made like 135 hp and was a 3.4 L I believe so could you say that it has a 3.4 n/a just because it was developed with it?

[@cali2468]

Yep the 'ol LB4 turbo Vortec V6.

[@houseofno]

@@-thebatman- the 3.4 was more closely related to the 2.8/3.1 motors. The 3.4 is generally considered to be a garbage engine qualitywise. The 3.8 was a far better engine. No relation to the 3.8 which is widely considered to be one of GM's best engines. The fwd versions were used into the early 2000s.

[@greghaa]

@@houseofno A number of other GM cars used the 4.1 liter block which was almost identical to the '109's (3.8) but with a larger bore. Same heads and cranks if I am not mistaken. Many of the GN enthusiasts of later years used the 4.1 liter for the greater displacement with interchangeable parts to the 109 block. There were also stage I and II motors for the GN with the casting numbers '016 and '017 in 4.1 liter as well as 3.8 liter casting number '012. The guy was right. There was someone at Buick who really wanted to stay in touch with the racing community.

No reason to buy this car. What in reality is special about it. The dealership thinks the car is worth more than it really is.

Buick was shutdown at the end of 2019 as nothing they offered sold because most if not all were just rebadged Asian cars. I actually thought that GM sold Buick back in 2010 along with several other brands like Pontiac and Saturn and others they couldn't get a buyer for just folded like the Civilian Hummers. I read all that on the interweb so it must be true.

@Bo Oliver Exactly, even cars he bought brand new decades ago have minimal miles on them. Even if he was driving all of them evenly, they'd still be minimally used. He's got about 180 cars and 160 motorcycles. Also this GNX would've had vast numbers of people see it in their car sales yard/building, as opposed to in a private collection.
