ok, so i got myself thinking. If something happened to your grand prix, what would you buy?
If something happened to mine, i would more than likely buy a GTO or G8.

MKIV Supra in a heart beat. Something already built. SP74 600+whp on low boost. Yep lol. Either way even if I keep the Grand prix as a daily I'm getting an MKIV before I'm 21.

i agree. But some trucks that are lifted just to look good, actually do just really look good. I wouldnt go mudding or anything with a newer ram thats lifted.
thats the other thing to, If my motor or tranny decides to go on me in the near future, I will be picking up a truck and keeping the gp on the back burner for some time.

I heard he blew that turbo on that dyno. It looks like he blew the seals at least. Lot of people say it didn't make those numbers on supra forums.

The wife is about to buy what she wants, a Chevy Traverse/GMC Acadia. If I could get what I wanted, it would either be a G8 or Cadillac CTS.

If it were, lets say, a project/tinker 2nd vehicle, it would either be an old school beetle (pre 67), late 70's el camino or malibu, or a 70 ford fairlane 500 2dr hardtop. For a daily, I would say a tahoe, not the new body style......

lol nah time to real man toy. :p I was too young so my parents who got me for summer car as SE model.
When I want mustang few years ago. They says no because of high insurance and young age. I'm disappointed and accept that fact. I wait until I reach age 25 so insurance should go low. Now, I'm 27 but still love my summer car. Oh well thing change I guess. Part of me still love mustang. I mean I was waiting for it when I was kid.

I like new mustang from Las Vega nascar Sprint Cup last weekend. I believe it is Roush Mustang as pace car. It is white mustang with blue striple. I thought it was awesome looking mustang. I also like foxbody that my boss has one. He own it (1985) since brand new.

Keeping myself in the realm of reality, maybe a nice 3-series BMW with manual transmission.

duff, why would you settle for an A4? hell, if im gonna for a 4 series audi, im heading right for the bi-turbo v6 s4's!! YUMM lol
he probably did blow the turbo on that dyno chris, but he owns a lot of nail/beauty salons, so im sure it was just chump change to replace it/upgrade. Anyways he has a GTR now thats low 11's or high 10's. I last heard a couple weeks ago that he had the GTR at AMS in chicago getting a full turbo build. My friend was there with his s4, so thats how i heard about that.

If something happened to mine, i would more than likely buy a GTO or G8. Nothing, one of my other cars would get the garage space...

Staying far away from reality, 2010 Vauxhall VXR8 Bathurst S! It's completely absurd and seems like tons of fun. The supercharger whine made Jeremy Clarkson refer to it as, "the car that's having a Lady Chatterly crisis". Check out the Top Gear clip on youtube from last weeks episode: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PkiZdcAR6WU&feature=related
