You know, as my Bonnie was stuck at my friend'* house for a bit, I had to drive my parent'* Eurovan around. That was a 27,000 dollar van. Mine cost 3k. I laughed in their faces at how ridiculously primative that van is, and thought to myself, is there a better car than mine?

I don't believe so...

So, no, I've never been bored of my car. And if I ever will, I just need to drop a few hundred bucks in it and I'll be set

I'm not bored at all, just tired of replacing things every two weeks.

axle shaft
master cylinder (8 weeks ago)
ball joints (5 weeks ago)
brake line rot (2 weeks ago)
NEW! harmonic balancer clattering loud and clear
Possible bad wheel bearing or just loud squeaky brakes
rear struts are on the way out

But my sound system is great!

i wouldnt say bord. but money pit would sorta be a better word. after reaplacing the whole suspention, tps unit, tires all the way round, and a few hundy on something else. then the next day my master clylander goes out. well that same day i drove home a gp gtp not only was it faster (ALOT) it was a bit smaller. hower now i miss the 4door but oh well.....

but my mom is in the market for a car. she loves my gp but wants somthing biggger so is said bville of cource was was like whats that. well we went car shoping and the loved the 2000+ bonnevilles. she not sure yet on the sle or the ssei. she drove a gxp version and didnt like it. (WTF) but i advised her that the norm 3800 n/a motor was more then enough for her. my step dad on the other hand is goin back today or the next to check out the gxp. so it looks like here in the driveway there will be 2 bonnevilles and a grand prix. i loved having the quickest car in the drive..... looks like its time to check out intense to see what they have on sale... sorry to jack thread back to subject.

no i was never bord of my bonneville i do miss it and if i could get my hands on anouther i would grap on up. there are the ultimate sleeper.

never! I've gotten frustrated with what the stupid mechanic did to the 94 SSE because I kept breaking down and ultimately had to sell the car, I couldn't keep up with the repair costs of tracking down all the wiring issues the mechanic caused. He spliced wires throughout the entire car.
