Thanks Guys! Yea, mom is very happy with it, that is for sure!

Wayne, I totally agree, I liked many of the cars in the Pontiac line, and was very sad to here GM was getting rid of Pontiac. The Bonneville is a nice car for sure, we all like it for its room and comfort. It is the N/A 3.8L! Mom's Bonnie is a base Bonneville SE, but it is the FULLY loaded SE...so it has ALL options you could get with the SE, except a moonroof. When we bought the car new in 2000, my mom did not care for the front end of the SLE, or SSEI, but she did like the back of the SLE, and SSEI...but decided that the front end of the SE was nicer than the SSEI front end. Now, she say she still liker her front end better, but the SSEI front end has grown on her. LOL!

Great job Michael! That brings back memories of my Dads 2000 Bonnie SE - just like your Mom's but it was Galaxy Silver and it too didn't have a sunroof. My dad sold it to one of my Fiance's co-workers and it's still going strong.

I drove a white 2003 Bonnieville when I lived in Oregon. Traded it in for the 2008 pontiac G5. Which got repoed (thanks chris!). I loved that car. What I didn't like? The pain at the pump. Had leather, steering wheel stereo controls, power seats, *** warmers...

Some old lady bought it when I took it back to the dealer and wrapped it around a pole a month later.

Dude, what did you do wrong?

The only time guys detail mom's car is on mother's day, and when they've done something wrong.

So what did you do, man? :p

I was like yea...then one thing lead to another, and I just went all the way, and detailed it....My Monte didnt get washed at all LOL.
