I don't know what you are talking about. All Grand Prix'* (especially special & anniversary editions) are slow and crappy. Hell, I think you are even lying about breaking traction at every intersection...I know our crappy slow Anniversary editon can't do that...
They are definately very nice cars....I love 'em.
See...I told 'ya Aurora'* were slow!!!
Sounds like you had fun...now imagine that car running mid 12'*...that is what sits in the left bay of our garage each an every day, right next to the 1990 Turbo 3.1L Grand Prix, which sits right next to the 2000 Bonneville SSEi. Needless to say, Forced Induction, Front Wheel Drive, V6 Pontiacs are what we like!

Shawn likes pushin my buttons tonight :P
I had driven that car before, so I knew what to expect, but yes it was good fun. If it had the fit and finish of my Aurora or even Bonnies, then ya, great car...none the less...
The only problem, the climate control **** was missing and looked pretty ghetto, and for some reason the HUD was dead... :?
The twin intake dealies on the hood are pretty cool, so are the rims...it looks great in red too

Anyways, I would still rather have an SSEi...for another $5,000 you get MUCH more car.

I agree on all points Shawn...so ah, did you get the licence yet? I think I hear a heavily modified GP calling your name

Unfortunately I don't get my license until either Thursday or Friday, but thats just in time for Michigan Grudge Match 4 with the Michigan Grand Prix Club on Saturday. I plan to be the slowest forced induction car there, and proud of it!!! Of course my forced induction Grand Prix will be 40 c.i. (.7L) smaller than the others, and probably 7+ years older too.
