Well... I have a heavy foot and I do no highway driving. It's all city and back roads. My fuel economy suffers enough from all that. I don't need a V8... not unless gas gets back below $2. Oh and I can't forget that insurance will be higher for a V8. Anyways... pfft! Keep trash talking all you want, but in handling alone... my GA can whip your Caprice's ass. Power, though, is another story... :lol: :D

Well... I can't help that I've never seen one. Hell, I never knew GAGT's could have a 4cyl/5spd combo until I bought one... :P

<Flybrian> That must make it the most explosive town in the world! </Flybrian> :D Anyways, I forgot to mention that I also saw many of the cars mentioned in my "Well... As with Fly..." thread. Including two beautiful ones... a perfect Prelude and a sweet Integra. Also saw that 240sx I saw a while ago again. Damn... must be more signs that I should sell the GA and the 300EX. :unsure:

Impala as in Im-pal-uh. That's the only way I've heard it... I also couldn't make sense of Satty's sig because of that. I was like "WTF? That doesn't rhyme..."

"Not gonna lie, but I'm lying. Sorry." :P

3rd gen Firebird Firehawk... black... *drools*

Makes sense as it never was perfect in the first place... It was leaking at one time but seems to have fixed itself. I probably made it start leaking again or possibly worse. It wasn't smoking like when it was, though... So IDK. But that definitely crossed my mind when it happened. Just forgot to type about it.

I've heard it and used it before... but usually at the beginning of the sentence. Don't know why... :P

2.3L Quad4.... and seriously, I can't say which it was. I usually don't smell stuff like that... All I know is that it didn't smell pretty and definitely smelled like I cooked it. Kind of like exhaust mixed with coolant if I had to guess, but it definitely wasn't gas.

Bleh... Big, floaty sedans are totally not my style and fuel economy is a huge concern for me. No V8s and only V6s if they have a stick. Oh, BTW, I meant Bowtie's thread, not Fly's. :P

Yet was such a key word... wasn't it? I had an interesting experience with my GA today. Not a good one and I think it's a sign that I should sell it before something happens to it and drops its value severly. So... I was just leaving Brookville heading east on 322. I was following a van down a hill. At the bottom, there is a road on the right side that heads to Knox Dale, which is 2 miles from my house. Directly after there is a big, steep hill. I'm going to my grandparents that is a mile after you hit the top. Anyways, this van slows down to turn right. That ruins my momentum to go up the hill. So I have to keep it in third until I reach about 70 mph to even use 4th. I don't to shift into 4th, though. Well, as my rpms are in the process of rising (Quad4s hate to rev), this Durango comes up to me and tailgates me. Soon enough I reach the speed limit (55mph) and he still tailgates me. I don't like that very well, mind you. I decide to "show him" by leaving him in the dust, so to say. Well, I do just that by bringing it up about 75... in third. I am just below the rev-limiter. I start to smell something. It smells like I cooked my motor. Atleast that's what it smelled like.... It still ran fine and all gauges showed no problems. On my way home, however, it felt weaker. That and it didn't sound right. IDK, in both instances there wasn't much of difference between how it usually ran, but a difference none-the-less. So... I guess yet was just the right word for what I said earlier.

I think I'll pass... Anyways, I think I'm selling it for sure now. I had an interesting experience with it today and keeping any longer may flush its value down the drain as I'm not sure how much longer its going to last. If you want to what I'm talking... see Fly's thread once I post in it. :D

Oh shut up... :P Anyways, here are the pics. Nothin' special, but better than amber. Also... I'm not please with the fog lights I bought. They're not any whiter nor brighter than the regular ones I had before. They still have that yellow tint that I hate. Oh well... too late now... I have bigger issues.

I figured it out thanks to the Grand Am gurus... :P Appearantly after removing a certain screw at the top of it and behind the headlight, it should come right out. It didn't for me so I thought it was connected below the bumper as well. No... it was just stuck since it was probably the first time it was ever removed and had alot of dirt in it. As for the bulbs. It thought they were 194s but they looked bigger through the plastic. They are indeed 194s. I had already boughten them... blue ones that shine white! :D I just put them in. I'll have some pics once it gets dark. B)

Cmattson, no, I didn't try that.

Well... I had the headlight completely unconnected and it wasn't comming off with the bumper in place. There was some shrouding over it on the driver side which I did remove to remove the headlight. I can see the wire, but I can't touch it. It is tight and and my hands aren't that big... I'll take a pic sometime.

Well... I can't figure out what bulb is behind that plastic and I can't figure how the hell I get to it to replace the damn thing. Looks to me like I have to remove the front bumper and maybe even the quarter panels. Help is appreciated because I really don't want to do all that... :D

Yeah... My dad's mechanically inclined, but I'm not. I can do basic stuff and if I have instructions, can do more. That's about it. :P

:withstupid: Even the damn 90s, which everyone seems to hate, was more distinctive than GM now..

Sixty8... If I had already committed to selling everything... it might not be, but I haven't. I'm still very much undecided whether I will or not.... IDK, its just a big step and I don't like change when its something I love. I usually can never let go... Do you guys think I really should? Seriously, do you?

Congrats.... I guess. :P I'll just stick to data which supports the Grand Am GT ... it's faster and better handling... and better looking. Good choice, though. It's better than getting just about any other sedan, but if you would have gotten a GTP, you would have been able to beat a GAGT. :D

Well, well, well... found some really interesting vehicles that are super-close to me... Turbo Grand Prix BMW 325i No manuals... and not perfect... but interesting, none-the-less. :P

Want to know how much Toyota thinks a Cavalier is worth? Well... :blink: :P

Hmmm hmm hmm.... Here's a cool and clean 97 GAGT twincam 5spd. B) :P

Wow... 300 mile search spreads further than I thought. It's all the way out in New Jersey! Damn... but if it was closer, I'd definitely have to check it out.
