You should buy this so you and brad can be lesbians together.

pros- the car's in good shape, still has at least 6 years left in it. can pay cash and can work the price down some. I already know how to work on it. don't plan on any new mods, since its already mildly modded and I have other parts. I can part out the 98 and make some $ back. it's a somewhat valuable model being a 40th anniv version.
cons - it is already 7 years old. not state of the art. 75K miles and modded means that it might have some issues hidden (risk with any used car)
even import wise for the money I can / want to spend I still need to stay in the 6500 to 8000 range. i was also checking out a CTS for about 11500. But Ive heard mixed things about the 3.6.
appreciate your help spending my money, though. I knew I can count on you guys! |
i test drove a 06 CTS with the 3.6 before i got the new GP. As u can see I didnt get it. They have the "baller" factor, but just arnt worth it IMO. It wasnt very comfy at all.As for performance it felt about the same as the L26. I also looked at a fully loaded buick lacrosse. IDK if thats something you would be interested in, but it was around the same price of my GP. so i test drove that, i loved it. but it had 20K more then the GP. I kinda wish i got it as it had every option, and was black on black with the dark ebony wood grain. its what some of the buick guys would refer to as "Teh Secks". your not getting any younger Guzzo maybe just maybe take a look at the buick.

keep in mind thats where i bought my car, and I have coupons for if I refer a person. so im sure they would work with you. I'm 19 and had next to no credit, and at the time was only part time. and some how they got me a loan,threw in the addition B-B for only 500(cost closer to 1750 actual cost) then took 1250 off the price just to keep the payments where i wanted them. Talk to Cindy Pistell. Tell her Corey with the 08 GP refereed you. they go out of there way to help people out.
Best of luck, as i know its tuff because i just went thru the same thing. |
