It'* an economy car...... They are actually very roomy, good handling, fun to drive cars.... I got a buddy with a 96 LSi Sedan. It'* pretty fun to mod and go screwin around in. He'* got CAI, Cherry Bomb, Sound System Stuff, Fatter Tires and some Fog Lights. It'* quicker than most would assume, and he probably only Revved you to hear the Bonne in action.

oh no doubt some small cars are fast. I know this. I have friends with small cars and some are actually pretty damn quick. If all goes well with my bonnie and it doesn't give me problems, then I might turbo charge it. I want a car that no one will expect, then they line up with me and i blow them away. A huge sleeper in other words. I can just imagine the kind of power I would be getting from a 3.8L v6 turbocharged. If my bonnie gives me problems, and I don't get an ssei for my next car, I'll find a mid 90'* bonnie, like an se or an sse and work on it and save up to turbocharge it. That is my goal right now, actually I have a ton of goals, and i love cars, and I love bonnevilles, and I want to make a bonneville a huge name around where I live. Cause these cars are way underappreciated.

Another win for the bonneville, rock on. Not to mention I had just got my new high flow cat back exhaust so that helped considerably.

yes I do realize I do beat the crap out my car, but not alot actually. i do race alot, well most of the time, but I really don't bet the hell out of my car, my car is strong and will last me quite a few more miles. And about those pics, give me your e-mail address and I'll send u a few man. She eats alot of cars, but the matter of the fact is I have a little rice on my car, but not alot though, but the truth is she'* a bonnie and I love her to death.
