Time capsule GNX in New Jersey

[troGNman]

This evening I took a ride over to Straub Buick/Pontiac/GMC in the small town of Keyport, New Jersey to take a look at GNX #119. The car currently has 440 miles on it and has its own little corner on the Buick showroom. It looks kinda sinister sitting parked among Centurys and LeSabres. A salesman approached me as I was admiring the car and tells me that it gets taken outside on a regular basis and is driven around the lot. I was actually surprised about how much he knew about the car and Turbo Regals in general. BTW, the car is not for sale.

Yeah, that car has popped up on here a few times. Lots of folks see it and go in to find out about purchasing it and whammo...are in prime time places for someone to try to sell them a new Buick. Smart.

Hey Frank! It's a small town on the way to Sandy Hook off of RT35 or Exit 117 on the Garden State Parkway.

The car has been there since the dealership took delivery of it. It used to share floor space with a DeLorean (they sold them too).

Thats right down the street from where I work! I've checked that car out hundreds of times by now. When I first saw it it was only at like 220 miles. Didn't used to have the dings in the door and a few scratches though but thats just what happens I guess! Still an amazing car. I love it.

I remember the first day I saw it I was looking all around it then underneath it.....then I saw the mileage. And yeah it's not for sale, I tried. Even if it was though I don't think I could afford it.....ever.

First and only GNX i've ever seen in person.
