With a 406 V8 in it IMHO it is no longer a GN but its still a nice car.

Harry 07-27-2010 02:16 PM

OK, A GN with a heart transplant.

No... It's not a GN anymore, that's all. It's still impressive. BTW-did I see them putting VHT, or something, on the tires before the pull?

Harry 07-28-2010 07:32 AM

Ok, I'll bite. What is it then. Prius, Maybe a Citation. So a Lightining or a Mustang is no longer a Lightning or Mustang once you start changing motors or converting to turbo from a blower?

I don't know that I would call that an accurate statement the thing that make a GN a GN is the fact that it has a V6 a GN with a V8 in it is a Buick Regal. Im sorry harry I didn't know you had a vested interest in this car and I didn't mean to offend you.

Harry 07-28-2010 08:32 AM

To begin with you havn't offended me. I posted something and you guys just start picking it apart. I am just discussing something with you guys that seems to be an issue with ya'll. No need to get defensive just because i am questioning ya'lls ideas.

chrisheltra 07-28-2010 09:03 AM

In your opinion is this a Lightning or not?

With knowledge gained on this forum I can confidently say that is either a street or race car/truck.

Sure. Why wouldn't it be. Pro stock cars are still called either a Mustang or Charger or whatever.

This is why I dont think its a real L anymore even though it started as a authentic L with a VIN#. It shares absolutely nothing with a factory or modded L.

Ok, I can go with that. But, No matter what you or I think, If we were to go and register it at the DMV. It would be registered as an GN or Lightning. Now this is aside from the Street Car/Race Car debate. Whole nother topic.
