Re: radar??????

Get the Passport 8500 X50! That's the one I have. Best detector in the world. No seriously, its been tested by Automobile, Motor Trend, SpeedZones, and RadarTest and they all say it's the best. I picked it up for about $250 on ebay.

I had a regular Cobra one and that damn thing may have had something wrong with it because some times it wouldn't even go off but sometimes it would. Sometimes it would throw the train signal thing and I would be out in the middle of nowhere not even close to a train. So I sold it because who knows if it ever really saved me because...well I never got pulled over when I had it if that makes any sense. So it must have saved me a couple of times but I just would like to think that it sucked and I needed to get rid of is so I sold it for 10 bucks to a friend of mine. He needed one because he just bought a I don't know what year Pontiac Grand Prix, the Daytona 500 duplicate, 3.8L Supercharged. Pretty sweet car and he loves to go fast so he needed one I would post a picture but I don't know how, haha. I know that nobody cares about that car but I thought that I would share anyways.

Actually that car is pretty sweet. I was debating buying a 99 Grand Prix GTP, not the daytona edition. I test drove one, and that car has some mad balls for regular ass car. Ended up buying the eclipse instead. Much better looking, and was in better shape. Wish it had the power of the GTP though.

He loves the hell out of the car but when he bought it he only paid $3,600 for it and it had 117k I think on it. When he went to get the car inspected the comp said that the check engine light was on, but it wasn't in the car. So for some reason I don't know about they took the dash apart and found out that the Check Engine light wires had been cut clean, talk about some shaddy shit done to the car. Turns out the Torque converter was dicking up so he had that fixed done on the warrenty by the dealer. Also the dealer claims no responsibility for the cut wires, maybe they didn't cut them but who knows who did. The car runs great now so he's happy.

Re: radar??????

I had a 98 Grand Prix SE. I always saw black GTP's and I was so jealous.
