Go for it. Use that GM discount, and what about trading the Equinox on a Torrent GXP while your at it? I can't wait to see photos, get it.

I do like 300's but I want GM. I think the Civic looks like a ricer sorry. The Golf is a nice car but not for me. Need I repeat myself I said I need to go GM. As for the comment on repair bills, I was just giving BV $h!. I have no doubt the Jetta had alot of life left in it. But I want a GM car and the nearest V-Dub dealer is still 75 miles from me. Also fun to drive to me is my Bonneville, so a GP GT or G5 would certainly be "fun" for me.

Cobalt 11,000 miles on it, lots of life left in it. Jetta 82,000 miles on, it not nearly enough as much life left in it.

The first is totally over-done ricer. I said GM. The second is a nice German car, but way to many miles. I said GM. The third is an over-priced and most likely abused ricer. I said GM. I could have a nice 04-06 GTO for that easily. Or most of a new Camaro SS or G8 GT. So no way, although the Golf is a nice car, I don't want a forigen car or VW repair bills. Interesting idea... If I were to go non-GM a 02-04 Mustang GT Coupe with a 5spd. could be fun... With the mag style wheels and right color they are pretty cool.

Love those wheels with the Silver Moss color, Ocn what about a lowering kit from Eibach? That would finish it off nicely.

Not a fan sorry, if I was going with any 50's car it would be a '57 Chev Bel Air with a 283 V8 or '59 Eldorado, maybe a '58 Bonneville. It is in great shape tho.

Well my wife is not to sure about RWD, and my son or I will be getting a new Camaro anyways. Which is why I pushed to the GP, G5 or Impala.

Yeah the face was changed on all SE models for the 2001 model year. Don't worry a SE isn't even on my radar. I said I want a car I can ENJOY driving and that my son will actually want to drive.

The 97-03 verison or 04-08 verison I am confused, which one had an MCE? Must have been the 97-03 because I don't recall the 04-08's having one.

Well the one I am eye-balling has 50,000 on it. So I'd hope it had some life left in it. Plus its a coupe, I have had great luck with my W-Body Impala. Thanks for the honest anwswer tho.

:AH-HA_wink:

I say do it.

Guys stop the jokes and I would never do the G2 or whatever it is called. Seriously guys advice is needed. No more jokes.

Smart-ass the G3 is by far better looking than the LeMans. I should have added a 2002-2005 Grand Am GT SC/T to the list as well.

What the hell kind of car dealership is that? Honda, Ford and Pontiac all paired together? Side note the updated G6 is really sharp, I don't care what anyone says. They G3 actually look pretty nice in the photographs, your just a good photographer.

Hell no BV, if you like one trade the Cobalt in on one.

Hell yeah that is where I am from. It means something to me too!

Sure for the right price and the Malibu isn't even in my budget. A 2002-2005 Grand Am GT SC/T would be tho.

As for the rumor if this is true, it is a sad day and GM would be nuts to do this. Lots of upper end people consider GMC trucks because of the Denali trim and have a "upper end" buyer in General. Anyone who would advocate for GM to get rid of either of these brands needs to get there heads out of there ass. GMC is pure profit and like Camino has said BPG without GMC or Pontiac would fail. Its that simple. I would never get a GMC Truck, as I like Chevrolet Trucks better but, there is still very much so a reason they are around. As for Pontiac you know my thoughts, I would be happy with some sporty Mazda-ish stuff and BMW-ish stuff. I think both Pontiac after the two idea's they are considering for keeping the brand our good, and GMC has a good future indeed.

You would, but I trust you... So this is getting interesting... Any thoughts? I am trying to stay away from an Aveo5 or a G3! Not to be encouraged to buy one! That is why I came up with a list!

Smart-a$$.

Very true, I hope they do prove you wrong.

Why is that funny? Also I like your choices, the 04-08 GP or 01-02 Coupe I see...

Go ahead pick you favorite one or two cars. Try not to select more than three! Keep in mind my needs, has to have a nice size trunk, good performance (think like my SLE, good), can be driven for fun on the weekends and also driven to school/work by my son or I during the week, should be a good car with few expensive repairs, oh and it must be GM. If it isn't on the list it isn't being considered! 2008-2009 Cobalt XFE Coupe... I really like the fuel economy and the fact that it has a nice trunk and is a 5spd is a bonus. If I got one I would wish I had a G5 anyways. 2008-2009 G5 XFE... Same as the Cobalt but way better looking. 2001-2002 Grand Prix GT Coupe... Always loved the look of these. Finding them in good shape with low miles is hard, but in my budget but it is a 7 maybe 8 year old car. Also the Special Edition Models with the spoiler and wheels were sweet! Final Thoughts My budget is basically 8,000 if I am going used I might be able to slide it to 9,000 if I go new. Having said that I think a used is prolly the way to go. I have found a 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix GT Coupe Special Edition in Galaxy Silver all stock with 51K on it but it is 500 miles away and he is asking $8,400 about 1,000 actually more like 1,500 to much for the car. But my son has fallen in love, with those coupe GP's. Frankly so have I. Anyone know how rare the 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix GT/GTP Coupe/Sedan Special Editions are? Or the 2002 40th anni models? How about the 2003 Limited Edition models? Those by far with the multi-spoke chrome wheels and two tone interiors are the best looking and sweet badging and tips out back are a bonus. If I could do one of these I would, but they are hard to find! Any comment or ideas? Either way please vote! Down to those three options... So vote!

I would love a pure RWD brand, but with some Scion/Mazda-ish things as well would be nice. I would like some of both, as for the Trans Am just bring it back, as a rebadged Camaro true to history.
