| 1987 GN For Sale in NJ 1987 Buick Grand National – 62,510 Miles – 3rd Owner All the normal GN options plus the following: Power Driver’s Seat Factory Locking T-Tops Twilight Sentinel Factory Alarm Concert Sound II Stereo Cassette w/ EQ (completely refurbished by GM) Overall Condition: Car is located in Waldwick, NJ (near Paramus) The car is in excellent condition, I would rate it at a 7 overall on a scale of 1-10. The original owner’s manual and folder, warranty information booklet, maintenance schedule, and Delco radio manual in the glove box have the name of the original owner who bought it from Amon Buick in Rahway, NJ on 6/23/87. It was the sold to the 2nd owner on 6/27/88 when it had 6,668 miles on it. The 2nd owner had it for the next 14 years. I bought it from the second owner in December of 2002 with 45,247 miles on it. It now has 62,510 miles on it. I have a clean CarFax Vehicle History Report that I pulled on 12/12/04. The car runs excellent, is super quick, and idles very smoothly. It does not blow any smoke and doesn’t drip any fluids, except for a small oil leak at the rear mail seal, which is typical for these cars and is not a major issue to be replaced. A/C blows ice cold, and has a new pressure switch. It just legitimately passed NJ inspection at the Paramus, NJ inspection station in October 2004. The oil has been changed every 2,500 miles, and the larger AC Delco PF-52 oil filter has always been used. The car has been to Raceway Park in Englishtown, NJ one time since I have owned it this past August 2004 for Buick Weekend, and it ran a best time of 12.92 @106 mph with an easy launch of only 2-3 pounds of boost in 90 degree temps on street radials. With lower air temps, slicks, and more boost at launch, I’m guessing it would be in the low to mid 12’s no problem.
