It's legit. I've seen it at the ToyBarn several times. They always have nice stuff.

Interesting that it has the turbo logo on the floor mats. Can anyone confirm thats how they came? I though they all came with plain black mats.
Thanks

 

[TurboJunky]

They did not come from ASC or GM with anything other than plain black floor mats, same as a standard GN.

At 27yrs old I wouldn't expect the tires to be original and they're not.

Which car are saying "doesn't" have the orig tires ? Lots of our low mile GN's/T's/X's have the orig tires on them at 27 years old .

Mine had the original tires on it until last year when I changed them as I am driving the car more often now and didn't want the old rubber under there anymore. I did save them though.

That sounds like a good deal to me. Too bad I don’t have an extra $100k burning a hole in my pocket. The car is brand new. $30K in 1987 with inflation and etc.. should be close to the $100k they are asking.

The one at the title of this thread perhaps?

hello all, im sure this has been asked tons of times and or talked about before, but I must ask anyways. I am looking to pickup a GNX, i have seen a few on ebay prices vary obvious reasons. One that I keep seeing is in FL for 69k. I thought this was kind odd. Is there any undeniable way to tell what would be a stock GNX other than the obvious stuff, Number badge, rearend panhard setup, dash cluster, etc.... I mean the VIN and other items only the GNX had. Problem is if someone is good. They could just take a GN and invest a few k and try to sell for a preimum price.

Just make sure it's not this one. It was a totaled out GNx wrapped around a tree and a collision shop "re-made" back into a GNx from a GN and swapped VINs which is a CRIME. You can't take VIN from one production car and literally transfer it to another. Your SOS/DMV must issue it a salvage title and re-issue a new VIN to it, but they didn't do this:

As you can tell I skipped every 3-4th photos so I have MANY more in between what you see here. It's a virtual step-by-step photo essay of the crime they committed.

How did you get those pictures?

There's been a few threads posted in this forum throughout the years showing this. As a LE officer myself with Auto Theft training I thought it good information to have and keep. I've already advised several co-workers about this vehicle and hadn't heard back from them. One of my former co-workers is a criminal insurance investigator now that I think about it. I'll need to reach out to him.

As far as when this "restoration" took place I'm not sure, but I know it wasn't recently.

 

[achilliz]

Is this the one on ebay currently?
