I Picked Up The Bonneville
Ok folks, the 10 grand was more then worth it. I picked the beauty up on Friday, and took her to Toronto for the weekend, where i got it on a dynojet. Great numbers!
All i gotta do now, is drive back and forth to Toronto a few times and i'll be set for racing...gotta break the engine in a bit ya know! She's faster then shit now, i gotta get some more info on here for ya to see, but in comparison to what i had before, this is a dream! I'm going hunting when the roads dry up a bit this weekend, 5 litre mustangs and riced-out hondas, i'll have stories next week to share. Thanks again to everyone who provided information about what kind of things i should do with the car, it's been much appreciated!! :ylsuper

Sweet... I've grown a liking to Bonnevilles, I have my eyes on a 96 SSEi myself.
Infact, I have a picture of one as my desktop.

Thank you!!
'96 SSEi is a good investment...they're pretty cheap to pick up too, only about 8 grand if you look in the right places.

Hehehe, in time is right!
5500 is expensive...that's American currency right? That's more then the 8 grand i quoted, as i'm in Canadian currency...maybe if you decide for get one, cross the border and save some coin?... Just a thought!

Bonnies are slick sedans. Glad you found a good one. Comfy, quick, understated styling (until recently) and good parts supply engine wise.
Hmmm, I need a car to keep Layla out of the snow..... nah, has to be a manual. My fabulous heel & toe technique gets rusty quick in automatics. Oh well, maybe when I need something to go to board meetings in and have to look like a resposible adult.

Hehe, i know what you mean Redneck!
Octagon; my suggestion would be the Maxima with the 255hp stock and the 6 speed manual. you get your slick sedan, your performance, and your manual shift. The Maxima will have a lot more aftermarket potential then the Bonneville aswell. I went with the Bonne cuz i love Pontiacs...most reliable vehicles or all the North American cars is my experience, that makes me love 'em. Polygon, if i wrap this one around a pole, i'll never diss another import! Hehe, yeah right!
