Hey all. Been a while since I posted anything on here, but just been extremely busy. Made a little purchase recently...

I replaced this..

With this..







2001 Buick Regal GS. I wanted something a little smaller, and I always liked the Regal'* a lot. I am selling the Bonneville today actually, so I am happy I sold it fast. The engine was still pulling strong, but everything else with it was falling apart.
Its nice having the L67 engine, and everything inside is great. I was really impressed with the leather seats and how comfortable they are. It has 65000 miles on it, which aint too bad for that year. The tires are a little low, but I was able to get the priced reduse because of that; only other thing I "need" is tint now and I will be ready.

Nice purchase, the Regal is a great car. The GS is supercharged correct?

Not so much. The ricers are wise to them now.
