[QUOTE="Raven, post: 558183, member: 10688"] [b]GN's, GNX's and Blue03Cobra[/b] My hat is off to Blue03Cobra :beer: - you got all the right info about the GNX and your post was very impressive. You only left out the few external mods that made the X different from the GN. The wheels were different (aluminum honeycomb/lace - cross hatch pattern), bigger tires (Goodyear Gatorbacks), and there were fender flares along with the vents/louvers you mentioned. And of course the GNX badging as well. There are a [b]LOT[/b] of GN's that have the fender louvers and flares as well as GNX look-alike rims so it's pretty easy to mistake a GN for an actual GNX. One dead giveaway (and yes, GNX emblems are actual available I'm told so you can't even believe the emblems) is the unit build number that is located on the dash above the glove box. It will have a number from 1 to 547 (only 547 were actually built - I used to own #281) and will tell you where the car fell sequentially in production. I've owned 3 different GN's including the one I have now (an '87 hardtop with 55k miles) and the GNX.

They can certainly be beaten and an '03 Cobra (again, assuming it has a good driver) will give even a GNX all it wants with the most basic Turbo Regal mods such as a chip, tires, and race gas. I've had my current car (just basic bolt ons with the stock turbo, intercooler, and intercooler) to a best of 13.0 @ 105+mph. The GN's/GNX's are cars with 16+ year old technology and engineering but they can surprise anyone. At a stoplight or from a roll, unless [i]you know the car[/i], it could be a 13 second stocker [i]OR[/i] a 10 second street killer. Nice site here by the way.
