Forgot about that one. Yes consider the Chevy SS as well. That is if you can afford a brand new car of course.
Bye bye busa, sold my bike today and spend sometime off work test driving 3 cars I been considering, an 06 GP GXP, 02 Lexus GS430 and an 07 Acura TL-S. I really like all 3 to be honest the gxp compare to the other two in price is a steal for the features and suspension it has, one I tested was priced and just under 10k with 60,000 miles on it. The Lexus had well over 100k and asking price was 15k which is stupid expensive and the tls was an option but it proved out of my price range! I'm wondering do you guys know of another fwd V8 sedans beside the gm ls4 line up? (Impala, lacrosse, Grand Prix) I'm still strongly considering the GXP and am trying to avoid the RWD cars I just don't feel like wrestling with them in the winter, auto cars too no manual it's gonna be my new daily driver for the next 10 years or so. My budget is at 12k and no GTOs it's a coupe I need a sedan, G8s are too big for what I'm looking for and like I said any input/suggestions are greatly welcomed
get a late 90's ford Taurus sho, 3.4 v8
1995-2002 Lincoln continental was v8 fwd. I really can't think of anything else besides the LS4 platform

Tim: (it is tim correct?) you know me im so bad with names...lol
Youve had the Monte this long...If it aint broken...Why fix it? Ive had mine for the past 14 yrs!
It has currently 164,000 milesand I wouldnt trade it for anything! I think you may find.... Say, if you did sell it... there might come a aday when you say to yourself....Why did I do that? Just a little food for thought...
Thats my 2 cents!

NO No NO!! Those are our number 1 enemies on the road, wickedly fast sic cars... I had an 04 STI for awhile, proved to be a big money pit to, just like my Monte. Always wanting to make it faster and faster
