    As someone who was around when GNs were (nearly) new and still available and reasonable on the used market (yes, there actually was a time this was true), they were notorious for their terrible paint. It was rare to find a GN, even low mileage ones, that hadn't had a re-spray and this was when they were less than a decade old. Oh, you took care good care and only washed by hand? It's still scratched and swirled to hell. You live in a sunny climate? It's faded to death. That's how every one was, even when they were nearly new. Great job on this one.

    The used pad trick is one I’ve been implementing for years. I feel like once it’s “broken in,” the individual fibers are more pliable and separate a bit more to create a more loose and “softer” surface that allows for more even distribution of a polish. Great work on the GNX, this thing is a gem!

The assembly line paint robots were pretty new technology back then and were pretty stingy with paint coverage.

But I keep up with all of the latest from your channel. My vote for the next vehicle is the NSX. This was the car that sent the folks from Ferrari and Lamborghini back to the drawing board. An exotic that one could drive without worry of failure or breakdown. Keep up the tremendous work! You have fans over here!

    I'm pretty sure I know this exact car and have sat in it. My dad's friend was the original owner and sold it around '01 with just 1826 miles on it, and considering it was known on forum back then as the lowest mile GNX on the east coast, located in NJ, and Larry's shop not too far away from that geographic location, it's very possible. He passed away a few years ago but would have been proud to know that it's still looking this great. Larry has great attention to detail.

    Nice video again. Thanks for sharing. Question about the sequence of washing though, you learned me to do wheels always first then the paint. This time you did it other way around, any reason for that?
