There were only around 500 made, IIRC.
I doubt resale is on that guy's mind...

Ive seen 2 GNX's in my day... One guy from up in Wisconsin has one, perfect shape... He's about 60 years old and in a wheelchair, but can run with the best of em... The other is bone stock, sitting in a garage with a car cover, with................. 2000 miles!! Yeah that is two thousane miles... I guess that thing would go for about $35,000 right now... Very nice!!

I ran into a guy here on base a few months ago with one and when I said to him what a cool car he had, his response was that "it's just a glorified Regal" I was soo taken aback, I had nothing to say. eh, he was old anyway. Maybe he'll die off and it'll end up in my garage.
The vid is definetly better than any other I've seen so far. Even better than the supra or skyline that almost gets sideways on the dyno.

H()ly S41t!! Can you imagine riding beside something that powerful? Feelin' your car shake apart? Hahaha  Notice my mang was barely stepping on the Gas, until like a buck twenty into the vid, the car must have been generating 500hp just applying slight pressure to the gas...
