even if i had the $$$ I would NOT buy a G6 droptop sat in one at a car show did NOT like how far the windshield frame came towards the passenger compartment. it is just ASKING for you to smack your head against it all it takes is getting into the car when you are tired and not realizing how far back it goes. another car I always wanted is the last of the front drive Northstar powered Caddy Eldorados.

my dad's girlfriend's brother in law is in charge of sales at the 'used' cars section of my local Chevy/Caddy dealer. he told me he had some cars I might be interested in when I was at their house over the weekend. here are some ones I was looking *considering* 2000 Chrysler 300M 'Limited' with all the bells and whistles 79K on the clock 2006 Pontiac Grand Prix GT loaded 59K on the clock 2002 (or a 2003) Pontiac Grand Am GT coupe with the 'ram air' option of the 3 the Grand Am is more in my $$$ range and is sporty as hell with the 17" polished alloy rims and has every goody including sunroof, any suggestions?

With you living in Jamestown, NY...I would think a FWD sedan or coupe is the most practical. Winters can be pretty viscious in that neck of the woods. I grew up in Warren, PA. I remember the November with 48 inches of snow in November....don't miss that lake effect machine one bit.

that was why if I got a drop top it would be the Sebring, my dad's best friend had a mint 99/00 that I WAS gonna buy in 08 from him but he could not figure out what he wanted for it, so I bought the Monte. and my cousin has a VERY nice loaded 2nd gen Sebring with 110k on his 2.7 V6 and he has NEVER had any probs and has only replaced the plugs/wires and changed the fluids. another car I was looking at was a nice 2005 Bonneville SSEi for 6500 but it was like 2 or 3 states away :(.

time I saw this car today locally, 2002 Pontiac Bonneville SSE with only 62K miles, very clean and rust free owned by an older gentleman.
same trim level and color with the same wheels as that pic, what do you guys think. I am getting it for a daily driver for to and from work and the occasional trips out of town.

I'm still choking on you wanting to sell a Monte to gets Sebring convertible...I have 2 Montes and I tend to rescue them lol or try to...
I think the Buick would be the better choice, if you must... Btw take me with a grain of salt... I'm biased to the Monte Carlo like most here are to the Camaro! |
