I'm usually stupid with money. At least the wife says so.
It would be a great snag if someone was really into getting a GNX. But you gotta be SERIOUS. Not like they just show up all the time for sale. And this one sure is purty.

You could buy it for the wife to drive, just tell her she needs to keep it 6 yrs instead of trading up for a new car every 2 years.
It'll even be cheaper, plus keep better resale.
New car AND new wife? Sounds like upgrades all around!guy i work with is using this angle on his lady about a hellcat purchase..
So the car sold for $122,500.
If that was too much for you or you thought it was just too high on mileage, give this one a look:

It's one thing to pay that kind of money for a historically significant car and drive it around. It's another to pay that kind of money to just to sit it in a corner and look at it. If it were a true race car with no ability to be legally street driven, ok, then it's more palatable to buy it and display it. Doesn't mean it's a bad thing. Museum cars have their plus points too.
SO....the fact being I'll likely NEVER see one prowling the streets again so I never have to fear one ever blowing my doors off. It's the car that exists, but really doesn't. I have only seen one in my life in the wild on the road. It may have been a clone, but unlikely as this was circa 1990. Nice looking cars, but it's a niche car for niche people. The general Joe Working Class types likely won't ever get their hands on one.

Is it me or is every GNX collector/hoarder/investor cashing out the cars? Seems like I've seen alot of low mielage cars being sold unless they're on a six month ownership then off to the next flipper.
