Well Jim if you do get that Aurora you know that you'll lose your Moderator powers. Can't have a Olds driver in a position of power on BC.

For only 11k Cdn... yea I'd be keeping my 91 SSE.
I will only part w/ my 91 for a 01+ SSEi Black, or maybe one of those GXPs.

I did a search on Autotrader for Atlantic Canada.... only 4 Bonnies found, and no SSEi'*

Anyone know what area these codes are from?

(905)458-xxxx
(416) 871-xxxx

Well I got it

Cost me $10 500 CDN and wow..what a car....I sold the Bonne to my friend Paul who will be joining us soon. He picked up my Bonne for $2000 and took 1000 of it to pay the previous owner my deposit. Then he cut me a cheque for another G note. So basically I get to keep a close eye on the District, pay 8500 clams for an absolutely LOADED Aurora. So, methinks that if I don't feel much love for the car, I will flip it for 12 000, once its cleaned... or 14G if I can get it and get my SSEi....

Depends how I feel in the Aurora, now I hate to be modest, but I look good in that car...lmao



Merlin, 905 is a Greater Toronto area area code, and 416 is a downtown TO code.

Local to me bro

Geez he dumped his bonnie in 2 days..... Almost makes you sick!

Just kidding man, i have a feeling you'll find a black SSEi and do the same thing you just did. Although I still think it'* pretty much your GXP, and you can have a lot of fun with it.

A car is just that...a car. As long as it gets you where you want to go and you like to drive it then its a good fit. I know the feeling I get when I get a new(er) car and I can appreciate what your going through at the moment. Congratz!

Are you still going to be at the meet?
