The 1986 Grand National gained 35 horsepower and 30 foot-pounds of torque, thanks to an air-to-air intercooler; turbo adjustments and the relocation of the turbo to a spot nearer the right-side exhaust manifold to reduce lag, and redesigned upper and lower intake manifolds, and exhaust. A redesigned front air-dam allowed cool air to reach the intercooler duct.
"It was the fastest American production car in the country that year", and its glow would reverberate across the Buick line.
Buick never released a horsepower rating for the Grand National GNX, but it has been estimated at between 276 and 300 bhp (@ 4,400rpm), with 360-to-420 foot-pounds of torque @ 2,400rpm. The GNX managed 0-60 mph in under 5 seconds, and the 1/4 mile in as few as 13.43 seconds @ 103 mph. Only the Porsche 911 Turbo was quicker.
I found this info at Friends of Buick: Buick Power
I'm gonna say that the domestics went fast first, but thats just me.
Running around high fiving all the domestic V8 guys hands while screaming wooooo.

I'm a import guy, have been since I got my first car in '92...a nissan. With that being said, THAT MUSTANG WAS NASTY!!!!!!!!! And I'd take a ZO6 any day,C5 or C6. I believe the reason most of us are even on this site is because we like to go FAST. Anyone that watches this vid, and can't give the mustang it's due respect is a moron.
If YOU(import or domestic) got the hot shit, put YOUR money where your mouth is. When's the next TRack day. I need some good video footage.
Back to the useless "mine is better than yours" bickering.
