RansomEli Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 Maybe. I'll there are quite a few GNXes stored away with the same mileage. They were collector cars when new and quite a few were bought and put away as investments. Don't know why anyone would pay that much for a low-mileage version when restored ones are just as nice. It's not the same as a 1936 Cord or V-12 Cadillac. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnD1956 Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 But it's not a GNX. It's a Grand National. It may be a low mileage car but honestly, I do not see it as an investment at it's current 75K bid. Further, what condition does it assume after storing it for 30 years with a 1/4 tank of gas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thriller Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 (edited) $97,000 Canadian so almost. I love low mileage time capsules. That said, it’s tough for me to think of a time capsule that is younger than me. I didn’t read the entire description but a car like this deserves maintenance and to be driven a bit. If paying a premium for near-zero mileage, then it’s a museum piece. What do you do, replace the hood struts so they hold up the hood, or leave it all original showing a car you paid that much for with a chunk of wood? I'd rather get into a nice one at half or a third of the price that I can drive and enjoy, but that’s me. Of course if I was able to justify half that on expanding the fleet, there’s a 1916 truck in Michigan that would be mine.

John_S_in_Penna Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Look at for-sale ads, and you'll see many, many Grand Nationals for sale--likely several dozen at any one time. So many have been saved. When new, they were desirable, low production cars. I suppose they still are. But now, beyond everything else, they are perhaps the most common Buicks of the 1980's.

I can hear those dry old bearings crying now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
