Oh no im not getting a loan im giving them 2400 cash for it. I looked at the car very closey yesterday and tomorrow when i pick it up i will have a friend of the family that is a mechniac give it a looking over. This car is in excellant condition though. The lady that owned has taken extremely good care of it. The only problems that i noticed at all was the crusie control was not working and some paint fadeing on the wing.

Here is some pics of what exactly what the car looks like only mine does not have leather seats. When i get the car on tues i will take some pics.

A couple years ago my dad blew up the engine in his 96 Lumina (actually he didn't blow it up, a hose blew and that cooked the engine) so anyway, he was just going to give it to the dealer in a trade in.. I was like, I'll give you a grand and I'll put a new engine in it..

Turns out the engine that I found was from a 96 Grand Prix just like that, it only had 36 thousand miles on it-
I gotta admit those 3.1 OHV v6 engines are pretty torquey- I bet they feel even better in a smaller car.

thats a good lookin grand prix

im planning to take over my bro's '91 accord EX-R (or the EX in the states same thing just -R has more speed and luxury i think)
its in good condition but will require some repairs since he didnt take good care of it. it was my dad's car who passed away in 99 didnt get to drive it even a yr.

my bro is planning to a infiniti g35x (or the nissan skyline as others call it) or the acura tsx (european honda accord) or acura TL. hondas are great engines

good pontiac that i really wanna see here in canada is the GTO, 350 HP! american cars are really making a comeback in these few years (mustang, gt40, ford cobra, HEMI engine)

Why would I be jealous of your piece of crap Celica GT , *Maybe* if it was a GT-S it'd be somewhat cool... but a GT? pfft.


I'd take the wheels though

I also don't know a thing about cars either.

It's like someone who's really into some type of metal and someone who isn't saying "Oh Slipknot sounds like death metal".
