The Last Buick Grand National | Albuquerque News

The 1987 Buick Grand National was a turbocharged V6 powerhouse disguised as a stealthy black beast, secretly packing more than its claimed 245 horsepower and outpacing the Corvette—making it the fastest American production car of its year. With its iconic look and raw performance, it became a coveted collector’s gem, cherished for its originality. Owner Doug Baker, who found his in mint condition in Farmington, lives by the motto: maintain, don’t break. He’s added subtle upgrades like a new exhaust, tires, and a three-inch downpipe, but the heart remains untouched. As the final Grand National, it’s a living relic of an era, still turning heads and roaring with pride—keeping its legacy alive for car lovers to come.
