Default LuSe4's replacement

I have been meaning to post pics of both my new daily driver and the car I traded in the Monte for. First here is my 2004 Grand Prix GTP Comp G. It has been my wife's daily driver since late 2005. It is a very nice car, and has been extremely reliable. It is just getting ready to roll 130,000 miles. This will get me by until I can get what I really want, a new Camaro.

If you look closely, you can see my dog, Harley, in the back seat.







and here is the 2009 Camry XLE. This is really a great car. It is loaded to the max. It even has reclining rear seats, lol! Since we bought it, I have tinted it, debadged it, and added an SE rear spoiler. In the spring, I would like to find some SE wheels for it, and add the 2010 LED tail lights. The most important thing about this car is that the wife loves it, and it gets great mileage. It is averaging 32 MPG where the Grand Prix was averaging 21 MPG for the same route.

I'm sorry, the lack of excitement in your cars put me to sleep

I always liked the Comp G!

I'm really liking that Grand Prix. The Yota looks good too. You sure can't complain about all the options and the mileage you're getting.

Yeah, I gather that many won't like it, but she test drove a bunch of cars from different makes, and liked this one the best. Whatever makes her happy.
