Over the years, Buick has tried to shake this stereotype (Gran Sport, GN, GSX, etc…) but it still persists.
Even Oldsmobile (Buick’s close cousin) used the ad slogan that “this is not your father’s Oldsmobile” when they introduced the Aurora.
I say if you like the car….buy it. What do you really care what some other people may think?

I think GM should do some revisions with their cars. Sure it’d be great to have a Grand National, but wouldn’t it be great to have a Monte Carlo, Cutlass and Grand Prix too? Back then Those cars shared a lot of the same designs but each had it’s own personality, Somehow the 90′s managed to lose the charisma that went with the cars. I mean the Viper pulled it off, but aside from that what else was there? The muscle car revival wasn’t as special as it could’ve been.

It was a GM mandate. You can thank GM for discontinuing the 1981 – 1987 G-body Front engine rear wheel drive automobile line. For some reason they thought people wanted ugly clunky front wheel drive 4 cylinder economy cars, I’m not saying they’re bad, but its sad that these were the last of the real mid-sized muscle car era (Yes I know that the trans am’s and camaros were still produced, but those were pony cars) Anyway, it’s a shame that they stopped v8 & v6 RWD coupes in 1987..
if you think about it, know one has really beat this car, and im comparing 1987 to 2011, i know we have powerful cars , but back in 84, you just didnt mess with this and the syclone and the typhoon, we had it all(gm), and it was faster the corvette
Just saying but…. 1:41 How come they had CRT Monitors in 1987?
@hemiram04 They stopped production of it because Buick changed platforms from rear to front wheel drive because GM wanted them to “modernize” the car line up. The Grand National and GNX wouldn’t work with front wheel drive – so they had to stop production, but not by choice. It’s all in an interview with one of the Grand Nationals designers, it’s here on Youtube in 3 parts called “Grand National and GNX history”.
@hondahp18 I have one sitting in my driveway.. My dad owns one
Buick needs to revive it just like Ford, Dodge and Chevy have done with their old muscles
This is my dream classic car, because We’re pretty much the same age
I could not agree more with you. Buick makes a very fine vehicle. I don’t own one now, but I have. I could care less what some “people” think…
I always liked Buicks old saying “Wouldn’t YOU rather have a Buick?” Go for it , Buicks are cool, they last forever and ride good, what else could you ask for?
It’s because people see older people driving in them and they then say that older people drive Buick’s more than younger people. All it is is your kind of style. If you think it is a good deal then sure, buy it
