It’s easy to make jokes about the auction prices paid on Bring-A-Trailer. Low-hanging fruit, really. But this one feels particularly extra bonkers. What you see above is an absolutely wonderful example of the Buick GNX. Per the listing, Buick cranked out just 547 examples and this one is #255. On top of that, it’s in…
