1987 Buick GNX 223 on Classic Car and Driver Flashback

"it came in any color you wanted.. aslong as it was black !!" ahahaha i love that

they should build an new one for 2010.

The editor of car and driver has no clue what he was talking about towards the end of the clip. he said that the 3.8sfi turbo engine was placed in the Typhoon and Syclone. Thats incorrect as it was only used in the Turbo regals and Turbo TA. The Sy and Ty had a 4.3ltr turbo charged engine.

thank you, 4 that observation cuz i thought the same thing!!! if im not mistaken the sy/ty engines were vortech v6's based on the 1st gen chevy small block.

Yes, you are correct. All of the 4.3ltr engines were "based" on the GM smallblock lineup. They just designed it with two cylinders missing. The 4.3 Vortec was a potent engine to begin with, and strapping on an Water to Air Intercooled Turbo was a perfect idea. The are great trucks, but VERY unreliable once Modified. They always seem to have alot of knock and detonation.

very good i was thinking that guy was crazy my grandpa owned a typhoon

dont these cars run about $100,000.00 excellent condition?

this car was in the 80's so its not at the price yet. maybe in about ten more years you will be seeing that price for the gnx. but for a good condition one today i seen them as cheap as 20k and up.

GNX's go for 100K easly if the have very minimal miles. Here is a price guide. Nadaguides States 132K in perfect shape.

i was prefering to just a grand national.
