Pre-owned acquisition spans the standard GIV (1985-1992) and the GIV-SP (1992-2002). Aircraft Bluebook (Spring 2025, via AvBuyer GIV and GIV-SP price guides, updated 21 May 2025): standard GIV avg ~US$2.6M (1986) to US$3.2M (1992); GIV-SP avg US$3.55M (1992) to US$5.75M (2002), with the final five years (1998-2002) at US$4.85M-5.75M. Current 2026 asking: GlobalAir (updated 6/4/2026) lists GIV-SP from US$3.995M (1998, 5,997h) to US$5.7M (2001, 6,243h, on programs); AvBuyer/JETNET GIV-SP asking range US$2,795k-5,400k (303-unit fleet, 26 for sale); standard GIV asking up to ~US$4.2M but high-time early examples trade near US$1.8M-2.5M.

Pro feature. Available on your Jet Tracker account.
Manufacturer-published distances at sea level, ISA and reference weight. Not corrected for altitude, temperature, wind or runway condition, takeoff included. Uses the declared LDA as a proxy for effective runway length (RBAC 135.361) and the most favourable threshold in calm air (135.385(b)(1)): on the day, wind may force the shorter threshold. Destination only: does not assess the alternate aerodrome (135.387). Not a substitute for the AFM or the operator's performance analysis. Rule: RBAC 135.385 and 135.398; private flying (RBAC 91) is not factored. Runways: declared distance (LDA) from AISWEB/DECEA (2026-09-05), checkable on each aerodrome chart; where DECEA publishes no declared distance, physical length from OurAirports is used.

History
- 1985 - Primeiro business jet com glass cockpit completo
Lançado em 1985, o G-IV foi o primeiro bizjet da história a oferecer glass cockpit integral (Honeywell SPZ-8400 com 6 CRTs). Abriu caminho para a aviônica digital moderna que hoje é padrão em todos os jatos executivos.
- 1985First flight
- 1987FAA certification
- 1992 - GIV-SP em 1992 elevou o patamar
Em 1992 a Gulfstream lançou o GIV-SP (Special Performance) com MTOW maior, motores Tay 611-8 mais eficientes e Honeywell SPZ-8500. Mais de 350 unidades GIV-SP produzidas, variante mais valorizada hoje no usado.

Curiosities and highlights
Benefits
Range transatlântico real
4.220 nm (G-IV) a 4.350 nm (GIV-SP) permitem voos NYC-Londres, LAX-Tóquio (com tailwind) e São Paulo-Madrid sem escala. Padrão que definiu o que se espera de um heavy jet por 2 décadas.
Família G300/G350/G400/G450 derivada
Toda a linha G300, G350, G400 e G450 (até 2018) é descendente direta do G-IV, mesma fuselagem, asa e arquitetura. G450 trouxe PlaneView e MTOW maior, mas estrutura é fundamentalmente G-IV refinada.
Limitations
Custo operacional pesa no usado
Apesar do preço aquisitivo atrativo (USD 2,8M-12M), os Tay 611 consomem 480 gph e overhaul custa USD 1,2M por motor. Operadores precisam estar prontos para USD 750k/ano em fixos + USD 5.500/hora, barreira para owner-operators.
