I have a couple leads on a GN but nothing yet. My sweet spot would be $17.5K or lower for a nice t-top car with documentation. NO RUST and undercarriage MUST be nice and clean. I'll consider ALL nice cars but something that fits this description could put CASH in your hands fast.
Thanks ...........
To each their own I suspect.
This is definetly a racers board and there is no doubt the hard top roof is structurally a stronger option.
Depends if you are looking to drag race your car or just drive it.
When you start hitting the upper price range on these cars, my guess is you arent going racing.
When I went looking I specifically looked for a clean T-TOP car simply because it is what I remember about the 80's car.
Sort of the next best thing to a convertable in its time.
Definetly something to consider is what you want to do with the car,
cruise or race.
Most upper range GN's t-top cars, sun roof and hard top cars most likely are garage queens anyway so I wouldnt lean to any of them if you want a particular one.
They are all fun to drive.
Me I love the open feel of a T-TOP car, but others dont.
See if you can drive both and then decide.
As far as future value, thats anybodies guess.
In general, and there are always exceptions, the more options the more desirable, but again that is only a general rule.
Good luck with your search.
