I need you to come and inspect it.   One of the only real fears I have for something like this is the 455 and the fuel economy in a world of high gas price as it makes longer distance touring expensive. I no longer have a close contact in the lower mainland so it is a big commitment to go have a look in person.

I posted it on a GMC forum to see if anyone is familiar with it or the owners.

Running right, they should get about 9 miles per US gallon, so about 26 L/100km, about on par with towing a trailer.
 
It's finally warm enough here I can work on Roxie,  now that I have maintenance on the daily drivers out of the way.

A quick 3000k km loop through Moab would be 780L of fuel or about $1170. Hmm may have to camp off the bike  ;D

Saw this pop up on facebook ads and thought it looked pretty cool.  Not crazy expensive but could definitely be useful.

Check out this beauty! The 2022 G90 Genesis Model. There's something about the shape of the radiator grille that reminds me of something. Hmmmm?

Genesis Motors was founded November 4th, 2015; 6 years ago from Seoul, South Korea. :drv2:

Not sure they know what comparable actually means.

Top Upgrade model with technology package.
Front end damage. No frame damage.
NO BRAND/CLEAN TITLE.
No key therefore can't test if it starts.
Excellent opportunity to save money as comparable models sell for close to $40K.

I would think in their mind "comparable" means one that isn't damaged or been in an accident.  But 100% you can't really compare a regular non-damaged/never in an accident vehicle to one that has and is.  What was the price they were asking?

From the photo it certainly looks fixable. Probably not too many used parts out yet though.

There was a Cordoba for sale in Ottawa recently, thought it would be a contender.
