Name this muscle car with the Gran Sport option added, featuring a 4.9 liter V8 — the largest engine permitted by GM.

Answer Buick Skylark Gran Sport

The Buick Skylark intermediate with the Gran Sport option was the 1965 Skylark Gran Sport. The Gran Sport had the highest engine authorized by GM, a 401 cubic inches (6.6 liters) Buick V8, despite the Skylark already having a 300 cubic inches (4.9 liters) V8 (called a 400 by Buick because that was the maximum engine size allowed in intermediate body cars). The "nailhead" engine had a power output of 325 horsepower and a torque output of 445 lb-ft.
