The 3000GT wasn't a DSM. The DSM was a plant in Illinois for the Eclipse, Laser, and Talon. Technically the last year of the DSM was 1995 but the 2Gs are all considered DSM due to the model production starting before DSM was defunct. The Sebring is more DSM than the 3S platform.

The guy that lived in back of my trailer park says he had one. He said his had at least 800 horsepower and could beat anything on the road except an indecent exposure charge. He said he raced a fight jet and won. H I remember he used to wear cut-off blue jean shorts with a stained wife beater shirt tucked in over his bear belly with high top white tennis shoes. He got voted number 1 for the prettiest mullet in the trailer park. Looked just like Joe dirts one it did I tell ya! He ain't stuck around long because the po-leece come looking for him one day saying he been touching lil boys at the baseball field in a "not right way". Da po-leece even said he had roommate for him already. Some guy they called "Bubba da-but scrubber". I said "dats a weird last name!" But I heard that his Buick GNX went on to be used to make world peace because it was so dog gone beautiful...

Lol What a bunch of mis information Look this is how it went down GM was moving from rwd to fwd platforms to be shared across divisions It didn't happen overnight it took years of engineering and everybody in every make knew it was coming Nothing nefarious at all here folks just evolution
lol..GM failed The GNX... no way you can say this about a 2024 model GM anything in 40 more years. 2 doors and 300 HP...not everyone needs four doors or an SUV in the 80's ...These models go across the auction blocks very rarely... if its low miles and unmolested ..it well sell for well over 200 k price..They failed because the stopped production of rear drive platform models and to make Corvette execs happy..I could never fit in a Corvette but I can fit me and 3 other people and their luggage in this car. Pontiac had the same set up in a limited Firebird version.. not as popular as the Regal but just as fast...

It was changed to Winston Cup because Winston via RJ Reynolds Tobacco became the primary sponsor of the NASCAR premier series. The other reason the Buick Regal with the turbocharged V6 was created was because Buick started building "stock block turbo V6" for the CART series to run at the Indianapolis 500. It was part of the homologation rules for the CART series that to qualify for use in the series it had to have so many engines installed in production cars. The car was never a failure, it was a limited production vehicle to meet the requirements for CART. This is just like the limited production of the winged Dodge Daytonas and Plymouth Superbird. It's also the reason that there were Boss 429 Mustangs and 426 Hemi Chargers and Barracuda's.

It wasn't so much the car was a failure, as these are obviously very collectible. It was just such an anomaly and an outside of the box idea for Buick, and the regular GN was a quick car in its day, but with a much cheaper and arguably better built Mustang LX, it was a drivers race. Both were low 14 second cars but the Mustang actually could corner and took to mods extremely well. The G body was loonng in the tooth and the last hurrah gnx was a 21 gun salute to see it off. Collectors knew it'd be valuable but the only real ace up its sleeve was being +/- 1 second quicker for a lot more money. Very antiquated design and the build quality left a lot to get desired. Quick, nice looking cars to be sure. But overhyped for what it actually delivered
