Dave Navarro's GN

Bigassmotors · 04-23-2008, 10:39 AM

Greetings from a new member. I have inherited the responsibility for selling the WE-4 GN that Carmen Electra had customized for Dave Navarro.
I still havent gotten all the receipts for all that has been done to the car, so I am not showing motor pics until I have specifics.
Pix can be seen at
The Flourentine Gardens Of Bigassmotors :: Dave Navarro's 1987 Turbocharged Buick Grand National

I was hoping someone out there had a copy of the tv show that was made about the creation of this car.

I will say one thing, having driven it, I f-ing love it.

My thoughts exactly. I guess I'm too conservative, but that is one butt ugly car! Especially the wheels/tires.

It's either a WE4 or a GN, not both. Shoot a pic of the trunk id tag.

Hopefully the motor is untouched, otherwise it's most likely dicked up and slower than stock.

Electrajim · 04-23-2008, 02:08 PM

I heard "Electra", so I have to buy it.

Nice. Get engine pics and specs please.

salvageV6 · 04-23-2008, 03:38 PM

I guess they picked the right dealership to sell a butt ugly car.

Didn't look all that bad to me for a totally customized thing.

Better looking than a lot of cut up race cars we see here.

I'd drive it if the T tops didn't leak too much.

I see they lost the "Buick" passenger side panel that all WE4's had, might be a GN.

I'll go out on a limb and say I think Carmen Electra has good taste and probably tastes good as well.

It used to be a GN. Check out the nameplate above the glovebox. To bad they trashed so many of the original parts. That car would get more money if it was a stocker instead of a "player".

I wonder whose name is on the paperwork? That's the only thing that matters to whoever ends up buying that mess.

Do they have any of the original parts left? They might bring more $$$$$$ than the car now!

TurboGNNN · 04-23-2008, 08:07 PM

It's a GN. He was on the show with FUNK MASTER FLEX once and the car was stock looking with a saggy headliner.
