Tonyrodz. Can't see anything directly associated with a rear spoiler...wondering if it isn't tied into on of the pkgs? interesting thing is the donor truck (1994) had actual body color painted riv-nut mounting holes and mine had what appeared to be a rubber incased plugs with a threaded sleeve bonded to it.....Maybe a dealer installed thing or aftermarket. I will be removing the spoiler and when it comes time to give it a complete paint job I will weld the holes up.

I wouldn't doubt the dealer probably added it on, just to fill his pockets. I remember when the GNX's came out. My local dealer added a $25,000 "MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT" on it. Just greed.

That is crazy....If I recall the sought after GNX pkg was an $11,000 option from the General but being they only built 1320 I bet tje dealers gouged those who stepped up to the plate for one of those black beauties!!!! Were you lucky enough to have got your hands on a brand new GNX????

Back in 87 I wasn't impressed with them. I was into the GTA's. They made 547 GNX's. I do have a regular 87 GN tho.Screenshot_20181030-220229_Gallery.jpg Screenshot_20181030-220140_Gallery.jpg Had it since 96. Traded my Typhoon for it.ca0815-219643_1@2x.jpg Should've kept the Ty. Much rather drive my Hoe!20180617_140554.jpg

My husband used to have a Syclone. #2373 to be exact. Sold it about 9 years ago, it helped with the down payment on the house. I loved that little truck. It was bad ass.

Typhoons and Syclones are sweet. I am a huge Buick GN fan though. I thought they built more GNX's...pretty low production.

Yes sir, only 547. Other then the GNX, they made 20,000 87 GN's, and only around 5,000 ish 86 GN's. Numbers wise the 86's are more rare, but everyone wants an 87. Last of the breed I guess.

Extremely rare. I saw a '94 4x4 2-door with a 5-speed sell a few months ago on Ebay for a good amount of money. I would give my left nut to have a 5-speed in mine versus the 4-speed slushybox. Maybe I will find an old manual tranny pickup and convert mine to a NV-4500 5-speed in the future and make it look completely stock.
