Hey!

New to the forum, i was a GTP owner until yesterday (car got totaled in the ice, trees hurt) I got a killer deal on a 05 monte w/ the 3.4 so instead of getting a rental im moving right on. the dealershiip will be delivering the car again tomorrow.

Hope to make this car as good or better than my old grand prix.
R.I.P.

Just mentioning Colorado because the MODS warned us that Finkenmight be sending a lot of his friends after Chris here on MCF.

Just a bizarre coincidence......or not!

Welcome to the site!

Back when I had my 99 grand am GT, I wish I had sprung the extra money for a GrandPrix GTP instead. Nice car, too bad you lost it like that. The ram air hood you added an extra look of mean-ness. Like your wheels too. Did you manage to save them?

Hope you are enjoying your Monte Carlo so far. Keep in mind the 3.4 isn't going to be a match for the 3.8 you had in your GTP, but you should still enjoy driving it.

Hi `Jay,
I checked out your pictures of the accident, and
you are lucky that your not in the hospital : (
Did you get to keep your rims ?
Looks like your GTP protected you : )
Wish you many safe/fun miles in your Monte Carlo.
Look forward to reading your future posts.
