Default My 2000 Pontiac Grand Am GT1 [update 6/29/05]

Ok, here we go, my baby, my 2000 Pontiac Grand Am GT1. Bought her in April of '04, replacing my 1989 Honda Accord LXi. It's not the Bugatti I really want, but I love it nonetheless

Nice car Aleighy. I had a WS6 with 325hp (see avatar) before my saab!

Had a Grand Am GT as a rental when I first got to the US for a month. It was 210hp 3.8 V6 but it must have had a lot of torque as it felt quicker than 210hp if that makes sense. I'd just got out of a 96 Civic Si in the UK...which I still own but haven't driven in over 12 months (I bet the battery is flat now)

that's a nice looking car very clean. I've driven the 3.8 before and it was pretty quick.
