which one would you get. I keep on having problems with my power steering assembly and my warranty is about to expire in less than 5k so I am trying to decide on it now and save.

GTP...no contest. That'* only because 97-02 SSEi was not a choice.

Not as big or smooth riding as the ville, but you will get your monies worth.

I'd say blazer. The GTP and civic are both toilet cars. Who wants something everybody and their brother has?

I beleive all cars are "toilet cars". I can't find one car theat hasn't been duplicated unless is a concept car.

Sorry...gotta disagree there. Back in 87, when the Bonneville was redesigned, it was groundbreaking. And I have not seen a car like my new one replicated very often, the toilet car reference was more of a personal opinion then a reflection of vehicles in general.

Lets not let this get outta hand folks.

i agree, plus theres lots more room in the blazer (even better if you want a system...). and you can put up to 22"* on it (if its the same suspension setup as the 95-97 s10) go for the blazer plus i think insurance will be a little less on the blazer... only downside tot he blazer is the cost of the GFX if you break one..lets say the front airdam.... it alone is like $500

I was meaning that once they make a car, they don't make just one. I thought the same thing here in Chicago how the other car clubs like the MC'*, the Grand Prix'* and the Cutlass Supremes had the most cars out of everyone else'*. Estimated 200 cars in those clubs. My club only has 61 members total. I mean they don't make as any bonnevilles as they do the other cars (Cutlass, now Intruigue soon deleted), I just had to look at it like this. They make one car they going to make thousands of it. Regardless what year it is. I thougjht this was a know truth. THIS IS NOT A FLAME.

I'm loyal to Pontiac. I'd take the GTP.
