Hello everyone, my name is Mike and I just recently bought a 1997 Bonneville SSEI. My previous cars were a 1993 Grand Prix SE and a 1995 Grand Prix GTP. Needless to say the 1995'* dreaded LQ1 got the better of me and I gave up after 3 years of constant repairs and letdowns. Since I'm a Pontiac lover and Loyal to GM I searched for a new ride and found an awesome Bonneville on Kijiji. I bought the car within a week already heavily modified. I have a good knowledge of cars, but not to the point of a mechanic etc. Anyways I'll shut up and post a few pictures and the mod list. Currently she'* winterized with 15'' Steelies.

Welcome to the site. I've seen that car before. I think that was merlins car. nice find.

dang nice car man, it has my wishlist of mods on it =] you'll have to run it at the track soon =]

soon as in next spring.

Yeah when I seen the mods I thought to myself, "I gotta get this car!" lol. I'm wondering what kind of numbers she would pull at the 1/4 mile also. Thnx guys.

I wanted to get that car myself. I would say driving it good should get you in the low 13s

Just look up Merlin 91/97 and you'll find all the info about that car and the 91 he turbo'd.

You stole that car BTW. That price barely covers the cost of the heads.

welcome to the forum!!!! awesome car! love the valve covers!

Wow, I had no idea this car was on the net. I searched like you said. That'* quite a surprise. I got the car for $2500.00 CDN

That is a killer price. Like Bill said, the heads cost a lot. You got a great deal.
