    I almost got one, but the interior is a joke. "Leatherette" is not even a word, BMW made it up. Until they get cloth seats and a cassette player with auto-reverse in it, I aint touching it!

    How you will get that over the speed humps in the office parking lot is beyond me.

    The whole center drive thing might be a PITA if you like fast food drive throughs.

    Nothing says "I am speeding, give a ticket" like that many stickers.

    Yup and make mine a 1986 Grand National. :devil::Thumbsup:

    In 1986, Buick added in an air-to-air intercooler and tweaked the boost output to net the 3.8-liter V-6 an extra 35 horsepower and 30 pound-feet of torque, bettering the mighty Corvette’s base engine by 5 horsepower. With aluminum heads, the Corvette matched the Natty’s output.

    The extra power pushed the Grand National to a new height, hitting 60 mph in 4.8 seconds and clearing a 1/4-mile in just 13.7 ticks of the second hand. That left the Corvette boys holding their jock straps at the starting line, as the Vette took 5.9 seconds to hit 60 mph and cleared the 1/4-mile in 14.2 seconds.

    GNX!

    Also think the Typhoon/Cyclone Chevys were under appreciated.
