The problem with a GN other than its slow, power windows rarely work, Sunroofs and T-Tops leak, brakes like shit, handles like shit..... Is the PARTS to REPLACE shit when it gets damaged.

I just didnt enjoy driving my GN any longer cause I was so afraid of being rear ended or T-boned. Finding parts to replace shit is dam near impossible!

They require Methanol to make any power and u have to tune to Methanol so motors melt OFTEN when the alky pumps fail which it does OFTEN.....

They get a lot of attention tho and still an iconic American Muscle car.

Dont sleep on modded ones tho they go low 8's pretty easily as they weigh around 3300 lbs with weight reduction.

They’re all at the racetracks around Detroit, they have “G body shootouts” FFS

There’s a nasty TT LSX one around here on rose gold 26s…
These are runner up to fox body’s, 30 grand and up for something kind of nice.

I'd take a Monte SS or Cutlass Supreme

All the ones I see are either rusted, trashed, donked out, and they all want $10,000-15,000. I remember being able to get a somewhat clean one for $3,500

Something like this?


LS-something in it of course. And a full suspension setup from a place like QA1/Hotchkiss/UMI/Ridetech

They have that hood reputation and I'd probably not want to leave it parked anywhere around here...

Maybe something like this one, but a hardtop.
