New GN/GNX
Permalink Closed

I have a saying that I don't believe a car is being released until you can go to the dealership and buy it...and I think that applies here, as I have heard the return of these nameplates several times, so take it with a grain of salt.

Having said that, here's a quick run down, the car will be a Sedan, RWD based off of the Alpha Platform (Cadillac ATS/Next Camaro)

t-type & GN Turbo V6 putting down 350-400hp
GNX V8 New LT1 putting down 450 HP

GN & GNX Black Only

I know some are not liking this idea, but gm.....BUICK really needs this. They are really making some nice cars now, but really need a show piece in their stable to get some attention... Now all we need is chevy to release an economical rwd on alpha

I think it's a really cool looking car, And I do like the peformance aspect of the turbo and the new LT1. But I don't think the GN or GNX nameplates should be resurected. The T-Type is OK.

scott, the new LT1 on paper and what i read is an incredible motor. and for the record, i'd rather have a LT1 over a LS1 for a daily any day. that low grunt of a LT1 is so much fun.



back to the op. people are now saying the GN will not come back... thank god.
