    This Buick is black does not have GN wheels, does have the GN insignia on the front seats backs, Has a hood scoop and doesn't sound right for a 3800 turbo engine.

    So what's under the hood? The VIN would designate whether it originally had a v6 turbo engine. Doesn't look like an 86 or 87 grille either.

    You know those "find five thing different" image puzzles?

    This is one.

    The Buick "GN V6 Turbo" on the fender is in the wrong place, antenna, in addition to the other obvious "mistakes".

    I call shenanigans.

    The first car is an ‘82 or ‘83, Based off the grill.
    81-83 based off the header panel.
    I can look at a grill tomorrow when I get to my shop.

    The car was built in ‘91 based off the headlight covers. :D

    I just don't think a real GN needs a big hood scoope. I see it again I will see if I can get a vin number picture.

    I know a real Pontiac GTO has 641 in the vin number so is easy to see if it is a Lemans make over.

    It also sounds fishy, more like a v8 than a V6.

    Puzzled about this one. A real GTO VIN typically starts with 242.
