Those old GNs and GNXs are pretty cool.

In highschool a friend's dad had a regular GN that we would cruise around in. I ran into one GNX on the freeway back then. My '78 Oldsmobuick with the 3.8 V6 didn't have a chance.

IMO that GNX will hold its value better than the cars you mentioned

I dont buy cars to put them in a plastic bag in a storage unit. Also, using cars as an investment is a terrible idea. The MSRP of a 87 GNX was about $40k, that much put into the stock market or real estate back then would likely be worth 5x whatever this car ends of selling for.

When the rich boomers that buy these things die off, the market will crash hard.

Shoulda woulda...
You also could have used that $40k to invest in Enron.

Truth. At around 10% annual growth in the stock market that $40K doubles every 7 years.
