The intercooled Grand Nationals were on the streets by then. They were pretty much untouchable wrt acceleration in their day.
Car and driver tested the 86 GN at 13.9 secs in the 1/4 mile and
0-60 time of 4.9 seconds.
In 1986 it was the fastest accelerating new production car available on US soil. In 1987 the Buick GNX took it a step further. They were much faster cars. They ran the 1/4 mile in 13.4 seconds and accelerated to 60mph in 4.7 seconds.
