IMO? I think it'* more agreeable that we can fix up a '94-97 to be a lot better looking and way faster with the alloted money than trying to buy a 2000+ and put what..an intake on it before we're out of cash? Honestly I think the older bonnies are..*ahem*...uglay. I never did like 80'* styling in any car though, that was just a strange decade. I think the 92+ has nice styling and 96+ would have the best availabilty of parts and wouldn't break the bank just trying to buy one. I still stick with a 96ish bonne.

But really I never did like 80'* styling I dunno why. I think the new bonnevilles are kinda ugly too. I think Allmachtige'* bonnie looks hot. Something like that + those crystal clear headlights (wherever we can find them), a ram air hood..and not those glue ons...smaller series tires and some deep dish rims..mmmm. Maybe we can mess with a subtle kit too. BTW Allmachtige, how much was your paint job? And where did you get the headlight covers?

This is a cute idea, but it will turn out to be a real clusterf***!

This is from experience. It would be cool if it would work out though.

my vote would be toward either a 92-95, or a 2000 or above. The other years body styles I don't like as much.

Would be a good idea buuuuuuut.....No.
I can just see it now, so many people would be disagreeing and fighting over it. Too many members here and not everybody agree'* with eachother. just take the Year argument for example, and the car has not even been thought of yet. it would never work out. It'* almost impossible to keep everybody happy, especially if they were to help out with cash, and somthing did not go their way....there would be pissed off people.
Like me, i wouldnt mind helping a little with the funds. but id be into the 92-99 style. im also into the lowered Clean look, big wheels and that type of thing. while others would rather have a "sleeper", and then you have the people that are into the flashy racey style. too many choices, and deffinately too many opinions.

hey how bout we got with a 94 SSEi...put a the GXP engine in it with a supercharger....then...go w/ adtr intake....new exhaust....on 17" chromies...but first i think we need a logo for the site....like the sticker idea...we need to have an official one...(i have made mods to mine, but havent posted them).....then w/ the logo we need a color and paint hte car that color....then i think we should go w/ stock interior...none of that roll cage Sh&$....then i think we need to get some hood scoops.(real ones)....bored out TB.....then $20 gets 1 drive and name on offical certificuit....$45 gets your name on the trunk....$100 gets your name on the doors.... $500+ gets your name on the hood....and i think that the title should be in the name of Bonnevilleclub.com...and make this car faster than crap....then go to teh track w/ the cars that htink they are fast and bet large amounts of $$$ on it and smoke the livin Sh%* outta them....
