I'd like to do that... How likely that is, though, is another story.

Same here.

Happy birthday, you dirty old man. :wink:

Nice.

That was Sunfire and the plan wasn't quite like that. It's on the back burner, that's not going to change. I'm either going to buy a good car via loan or a beater via cash. Yes, I'm not going to know them as well as I know my Millenia, but right now, I don't feel I should be throwing money away, trying to fix a car. I went through this with my Grand Am. While the issues don't seem nearly as fatal, it's a financial hassle that I dont want to go through while I'm still driving the money pit that is the Cutlass. That's my main concern. As said, it's going to come down buying another vehicle, whether with cash or a loan. That's what I'm pondering... Not whether I want to hand cuff myself to a sinking Millenia.

That requires patience. Do I seem like the patient type? It's already been taken to a trusted garage for a few days and had over a hundred spent on such. Combine the false diagnosis with buying a part based on that diagnosis, I basically threw $200 away. I'm not one for throwing more money away, especially when I'm left with barely anything from my paycheck because I have to spend anywhere from $60 to $100 per week on gas for the Cutlass. And then, of course, it needs brakes, tires, and a suspension link of some sort, renewed registration, and inspection, pending there are no issues that havent popped up since it's been sitting. I'd love to get it back on the road, but it's not looking feasible at the moment. I'd rather throw money at it when I'm in a better position financially.

I've been thinking... Rather than getting a loan and buying something nice right away, should I just look into another beater? Course, one that isn't as much of a money pit as nor as inefficient as the Cutlass. I currently have about $1200 saved up that could go towards something... decent. Nothing stellar, but something affordable to drive around in while I attempt to sell the Cutlass. As mentioned, the Cutlass is too much of a money pit, especially in gas. This would allow me to save money at a much greater rate. Some of you still think I should put it into my Millenia, but at the moment its on the back burner until something changes on the diagnostic level. I would also rather put this money towards something I can rely on, there's no guarantee that any money put into my Millenia will help it, as I learned. Thoughts?

Exactly my point.

While I hated it and seemed like a nightmare reliability wise... He abused the hell of out it, including never changing the oil, and it always ran. My suggestions, besides buying the Beast, don't buy a J-body, don't buy a Blazer, and don't buy anything with a Quad4. If you do, you'll be even worse off than you already are.

Never said I did. However, this cynical, perceived to be, agenda against Pontiac despite your dubious claims else wise and how you constantly, intentionally post in a way to agitate members is nothing but detrimental to C&G. I'm certainly not the only one that sees this. I don't care if you work for GM, you post in a disrespectful manner and its absolutely unprofessional. So, yes, be immature and roll your eyes at me.

I wish you'd stop being such a hypocrite and actually start contributing to C&G in a positive way.

Comfortable Liar - Chevelle

Vermillion Part 2 - Slipknot

Mine has been perfect since I bought it. Course, I only play it maybe once a month.

American Witch - Rob Zombie

Grossly exaggerated and extremely biased. He speaks the truth without the delusions of others. My family's experience with GM is nothing short of terrible and some of you just say "Well, sorry about luck, but don't forget, GM is a better investment than those pesky imports!" This pretty much explains the reasons for anything I've said on this subject to anyone. I mean, give me a break... I can only take so much BS.

Drain You - Nirvana

Congrats. Those Civics are certainly a great buy and far less boring than just about any other compact.

Maneater - Nelly Furtado. *nods*

Why, yes, I do keep my hands and feet clean.

QFT. Never once has the lack of ABS given me trouble. I even disconnected it in my Millenia. And anyone who buys a Cavalier over a Civic lacks intelligence.

Quite simply, it is of my opinion that you're not a true automotive enthusiast, then. Once you bring political reasons into it, you can't call yourself an enthusiast. Again, you're basically saying you're only open to buying 5% of the available vehicles on the market. How does that make you an enthusiast. You should be open to buying the majority. With all that said, it's only my opinion and I, by no means, decide who is and isn't an enthusiast.

I didn't realize this "special" package was available on other trims. That should mean more bugs bunny grills to mock, atleast. If you went away, I'd thank you for not increasing our intelligence deficit.

Beast. $800.
